Happy All Hallows Eve! Though I don’t talk about it very much, I love pulp fiction novel covers. Because there’s something so – not tawdry, per se – but campy about them. Lurid even. Gothic pulp covers in particular are overdramatic and macabre. They are voyeuristic in a way that should be horrifying, yet sucks you in nonetheless. There’s a formula to these gothic romance covers.
