This beautiful full colour signed folk horror movie magazine dives into the historical setting, production and huge legacy of Michael Reeves’ final movie, giving you an understanding of why it’s such an important chapter in film history. Driven by a terrifying, intimidating performance from Vincent Price, this was a movie picture destined to play a major role in motion picture culture, and our signed Witchfinder General magazine guide is the perfect companion to another viewing. Packed with information, insight and our renowned beautiful imagery, this luxury film guide is a rich resource: whether you’re new to the movie, or are well versed in the ways of witch hunters, you’ll discover the signed Ultimate Guide to Witchfinder General is an unmissable addition to your collection.

The violence and uncertainty of the English Civil War was a melting pot in which all manner of wickedness could surface; our signed Ultimate Guide to Witchfinder General explores the ways in which this historical tale of oppression is a reflection of wider human fears. This is more than a tribute magazine: every full colour page of this signed Witchfinder General guide is lovingly written and designed to give you a rewarding experience that enhances your enjoyment of the movie.

Michael Reeves and Tom Baker’s screenplay is a journey through the darkest corners of the human psyche, and our signed Ultimate Guide offers a wealth of detail on how this uncompromising foray into the world of folk horror came into being. A series of informative, professionally written articles traces the film’s inception and production, from its origins in the life of the real-world Matthew Hopkins to the casting decisions and fabled conflicts that resulted in such a compelling and enduring piece of cinema.

The signed Ultimate Guide to Witchfinder General is another stunning entry in the Classic Monsters series, produced to A4 size (210mm x 297mm) with a beautiful gloss cover. The inner pages, meanwhile, are printed on a fine silk stock that has a subtle sheen, offering a quality feel while the clean and unfussy layout – inspired by the movie’s aesthetic, but never overpowering – makes for an effortless reading experience.

A key part of the movie’s appeal is the haunting mood that changes it from what could have been a period thriller into one of the defining movies in the folk horror subgenre. The combination of lush natural beauty with stark human terror makes for a uniquely disquieting movie, and the signed Witchfinder General Ultimate Guide is the ideal way to relish the movie’s eerie splendour and immerse yourself in its unsettling, brooding atmosphere.

Of course, while the movie itself is front and centre, this signed Witchfinder General magazine guide also celebrates the gifted people who brought the harrowing tale of Matthew Hopkins to life. A range of detail-packed biographies introduce the personal and professional lives of key cast and crew, giving you a deeper understanding of what they all brought to the production. Reacquaint yourself with Vincent Price’s illustrious career, or discover more about co-stars Ian Ogilvy, Hilary Dyer and Rupert Davies; there’s also plenty of information about director Reeves, whose brief yet dazzling career made a bold mark on the horror cinema landscape, and his colleagues such as cinematographer John Coquillon and composer Paul Ferris. Among the many reasons why the signed Witchfinder General Ultimate Guide is a must-have for your collection, this range of biographies is an important one.

You also can’t fail to enjoy the stunning imagery which enlivens every page of this signed Witchfinder General magazine. In line with all Classic Monsters titles, this luxury magazine boasts a wealth of images, including artwork and posters, to draw you into a world of heroism and terror. Each image is meticulously restored to look its best, and unlike traditional monochrome printing, we use full colour print processes throughout, meaning even black and white stills are rich with depth and vibrance. You won’t find a signed Witchfinder General guide like it anywhere else.

That awful Matthew Hopkins is on his way to town. Better hide Granny in the scullery until he’s gone – you know how terrible he is when it comes to old women, ducking them in the river like he does. Perhaps she could read the signed Ultimate Guide to Witchfinder General while she’s waiting for him and his terrible comrades to leave – it’s the best way to get right to the heart of the action, without being tortured and executed. And as that nice priest used to say, who wants any of that sort of thing?
