"Issue 200 of The Dark Side is 100 pages for just £3.99 and it is dedicated to everyone who has ever been stuck in a British Rail waiting room overnight with a haunted express in the vicinity. Ladies and gentlemen, we present Tommy Gander. He's a scream.

Getting quite excited about sharing our Ghost Train cover with you all. This will be the ultimate issue of The Dark Side and it is all downhill from here on on, because I can’t imagine us equalling the dynamite content of 100 pages on Arthur Askey’s masterpiece ever again. Kevin has suggested a Stinker Murdoch special and that would surely prove popular, but today’s horror fans are not so familiar with Stinker’s output. I have recently heard that Jordan Peele is preparing a remake of The Ghost Train with Pee Wee Herman in the Askey role but frankly I think he is on to a loser. Some classics can never be surpassed. I don’t think it will happen anyway because I hear Arnold Ridley’s estate wants a cool fifty million plus platform "



Seems to be very Arthur Askey-centric!

Especially for those who like a good jape!!
