I'm very interested in this. The books, especially the artwork for them, were the shit. I can't wait to see the monstrosities depicted in the books be brought to life with practical effects. At least I hope they're going practical, because fuck CGI.

Here's the first trailer(s):

 

[Dolphin Lundgren]

This looks fucking awesome.

I hope this one shows up.

 

[frozenrunner]

I can't imagine del Toro doing a movie with shitty CGI.

This gon be gud.

 

[Muttnik]

I eat up pretty much anything Del Toro makes so I hope it's as great as I think it could be. That man loves him some creature shit.

 

[hotcheetospuffs]

At least with this movie they are crediting the author of the books.

(Because he did not credit the author of the play Shape of Water is based upon)

 

[verissimus]

This looks fucking awesome.

I hope this one shows up.

Is this supposed to be Razorfist or Styx without makeup?

 

[BeanBidan]

This looks fucking awesome.

I hope this one shows up.

The years have not been kind to Narcissa Wright.

But I'm hyped for this. I loved reading the books when I was a young lad.

 

[Scratch This Nut]

What do you think this is gonna be rated?

This looks fucking awesome.

I hope this one shows up.

What about

 

[Duncan Hills Coffee]

Guillermo del Toro is the perfect director for a movie like this. His visual style already compliments the creepy art from the books.

 

[Outer Party Member]

The nightmares of my childhood as a movie, by one of the most surreal directors.

You now have my attention, Hollywood.

 

[Dolphin Lundgren]

I hope some of the less talked about stories are included. Like the one about a woman's mother getting ill and the mother disappearing along with the hotel room while she was getting a prescription for the mother.
Because the hotel workers dumped her body after the mother died and had the room changed.

 

[The Cunting Death]

he's not directing, only producing and supposedly came up with the story.
The guy directing is the guy who made Trollhunter (the found footage movie, not Del Toro's netflix series/book series.)
That being said, I'm still hyped

That one actually happened.

I love the poster art since Harold is probably the most recognizable story from the book. It's my favorite one, too. The one where the lady gets a horse ride home from a dead guy is cool too.

Beyond Belief: Fact Or Fiction said it was real too. I never found any stories that tied back to the scary story though.

 

[Jaded Optimist]

I'm stoked for this. I hated this horse, it's not scary, but was unsettling for young me

I can see why it only has one High heel and mystery is the scariest thing of all.

 

[Keystone]

Always found the tail on this thing revolting because of the stringy and greasy looking hair most of the illustrations have:

This motherfucker startled me the first time I read it as a young'un:

I don't remember this one, but he's eyeballin' you something fierce:

Exactly. The longer you look at it, the more confusing it is. It's horrifying for reasons that you can't directly explain.

 

[yeahweknow]

I don't remember this one, but he's eyeballin' you something fierce:

i think that one is from a reprint, where they also had new illustrations made

 

[Clintonberg]

While I'm excited for this I'm also a little weary of it having an overarching plot. I think it would have worked out better if it were just a collection of individual short stories. Can't wait to see how grotesque its creatures are tho.
