THRILLERS & CHILLERS 1973 Troll Associates/Troll Records (50-003) recording of four terror-ridden tales:
The Telltale Heart by Edgar Allan Poe
The Monkey's Paw by W. W. Jacobs

SCARY, SPOOKY STORIES 1973 Troll Associates/Troll Records (50-001) recording of six classic scary stories often told around campfires and at sleepovers!
The Dare
Dark, Dark, Dark
Big 'Fraid, Little 'Fraid
Wait 'Til Martin Comes
The Skinny Toe
The Thing at the Foot of the Bed
These are read by famous, award-winning actors Ralph Bell, Daniel Ocko, and Robert Dryden (who was this seller's father!), with direction and music by Jim Timmens, special effects by Barbara Wood/Hamilton O'Hara.
Both have been used/played over the years, I tested them both about 3 years ago (the last time these were played) on my Dad's turntable, and except for the normal pops and typical record noise from old vintage children's LPs, both played without skipping (my dad has a pretty top of the line turntable with anti-skip technology, but I'd expect the same results on other units). Advanced audiophiles might want to give the grooves a cleaning/de-dusting, but they should play fine as is.
SCARY SPOOKY STORIES is the better of the two condition-wise, less jacket/LP wear and still has the original inner sleeve. Colors look great and jacket overall looks pretty clean (see pics).
THRILLERS & CHILLERS has some jacket wear/scuffing, colors are unfaded, no album inner sleeve, LP is a little more worn than the other one, has invisible tape running a long bottom seam edge, hard to notice at first unless you angle it in the light, looks to have in place there long ago to keep the bottom edge from splitting.
Please see photos to further assess condition. Sold as is.
From a smoke-free, pet-free, clean home.
