Synopsis

When a young pig watches monster movies before bed, he's in for some tail-curling nightmares! From the Phantom Hog of the Opera to the Porker from the Black Lagoon, seventeen poems put a pigmarish spin on creepy classics. Cushman's illustrations evoke retro movie posters with hog-wild humor. A perfect read for young fans of horror, budding movie buffs, and anyone who simply can't stop singing "The Monster Mash"! "Movie Credits" at the end catalogue each poem's inspiration, citing the titles, dates, authors, directors, and stars of the world's scariest stories.

Pigmares
 
A thousand-foot pig breathing nuclear fire.
Gurgling gasps from a swamp’s murky mire.
Sharp fangs and red eyes on pale porcine faces.
Dead zombies crawl out from foul-smelling places.
Vampire pigs fly from castles at night;
their silver wings glow in the ghostly moonlight.
An ice-covered monster crawls out of a cave.
A creature made whole out of parts from a grave.
A mummified swine puts a curse on my head –
I should never watch monsters on film before bed!
