Jessica Amanda Salmonson has a page on the Creeps series (including the non-anthology titles) at Violet Books. Jessica also provides this link to rbadac's essay, The Best of the Creeps Series. Tartarus have the contents and several cover scans of Creeps and Not At Night originals. Robert Weinberg has cover scans of the Not At Night's and various other mouthwatering goodies in the unmissable Rare Books section of his site. Friend Calenture has taken a look at the Not At Night's on his Haunted Dolls House blog. Meanwhile, Franklin Marsh, has dramatised Meshes Of Doom from Birkin's Horrors on the Vault Of Evil forum.

During the summer, I had my first go at contributing an article to wikipedia. Nothing too fancy, just some basic details about Charles Birkin's Creeps anthologies. I must admit, I'd forgotten about it until I came across a reference while looking for something else. I don't know who was responsible, but someone at www.seele-brennt.com/ has expanded my dire footnote into a thing of beauty - and they've even included several of the plot synopsis' from this board. Here's the link: Charles Birkin Now if only someone can tart up the Christine Campbell Thomson entry I can die a happy man.

I notice that John Pelan is asking for data on Oswell Blakeston (among others). Presumably he'd have Hugh Lamb's Star Book of Horror 2, with Blakeston's The Ultimate Thrill (Lamb describes him as a forgotten author, though I'm sure I've been seeing that particular story around in various anthologies since I was a kid!)
I think Dem' has a copy of the old Thrills hardback - like me - which contains Blakeston's The Mysterious Fluid.
