“Edgar Allan Poe’s Tales of Death and Dementia” Book Launch Party With Artist Gris Grimly At Dark Delicacies
To Commemorate the 200th Anniversary of Edgar Allan Poe
On Sunday, August 23rd, 2009 at 2pm join artist Gris Grimly and Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab at DARK DELICACIES for an in-store appearance and signing. Gris Grimly’s NEW book “Edgar Allan Poe’s Tales of Death and Dementia” contains four fully illustrated Poe favorites, “The Tell-Tale Heart,” “The System of Dr. Tarr and Professor Fether,” “The Oblong Box” and “The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar”.
“Grimly’s deliciously malevolent illustrations are the perfect compliment to Poe’s macabre stories,” as described by The School Library Journal. This second installment is a companion to Grimly’s “Edgar Allan Poe’s Tales of Mystery and Madness,” with more than 100,000 copies of the US editions sold plus editions in 4 different languages. Grimly has done it again, with spine-chilling visuals, inviting the reader to open the book…if you dare.
This event takes place at DARK DELICACIES in Burbank California. Welcome to the Home of Horror, Dark Delicacies is a one of a kind store, considered to be the best horror store in the nation, known for their selection of books, gifts and collectibles.
Limited edition silk-screened posters (limited to 50) and the new line of Gris Grimly’s Poe t-shirts will be available for purchase. There will be a gallery display of prints and original art for sale. Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab will be releasing the four new scented oils based on the four stories in the book. When you purchase the book, one t-shirt or print, and one oil, you will get a limited Poe scent. Items are on a first come first serve basis.
