I spotted these on another site [well just the fronts of them] and asked their owner if he wouldn't mind sending me pics of the backs of them too, which as you can see he kindly did. Thanks Darren. Nice to see these packets with offers for the Dracula hand puppet, Serpents and Stairs game and Creepy Clutchers. Still haven't come across the Dracula Puppet or even seen a photo of one, still curious to what they are made of.

Great glimpse of a lost era
Wouldn't it be nice if they re-launched Horror bags again like they were originaly and you could send off for similiar items too?
When I was a kid we used to put crisp bags in the oven and they'd shrink down into hard, plastic miniatures (anyone else remember doing that?). I still have some of them in storage somewhere--I wish I'd done these bags.
Yeah I think I remember doing something similar to that too, fantastic how they did that. yes it would of been great to do horror bags in the same way, make nice little badges.
