Fear

Fear was a glossy horror magazine which mainly emphasized films and tv but also included much fiction.

In order to improve dwindling turnover for it's parent company, a spin-off from Fear was launched in June 1991 called Frighteners and containing selected short stories from famous and unknown authors, who were keen to find an outlet for their publishing efforts. Unfortunately, a Menzies customer found offence in a Graham Masterton short story and the news trade pulled issue one out of circulation.

This, and other problems, led to the demise of the publisher, and hence of both magazines, in late 1991.
