“The Beauty of Horror” is going international as Ghouliana shows us her favorite scary sites from around the world in Alan Robert‘s “The Beauty of Horror 3: Haunted Playgrounds, Another GOREgeous Coloring Book”!

Life of Agony bassist Alan Robert reveals more of Ghouliana’s monochromatic world, and it’s just waiting for you to saturate it with red, black, or any other color you can imagine (even pastels).

“Fans of this series continue to blow my mind on a daily basis with their amazing coloring work! It is because of them and their passion to bring my creepy artwork to life that I’ve decided to dive into volume three,” said Robert. “With Haunted Playgrounds, I get to expand Ghouliana’s world even more and introduce a slew of new twisted characters for her to interact within a bunch of bizarre settings. I’m in a great groove right now, with two of these books under my belt, so this one will be some serious fun draw!”

You never know what’s lurking behind the next corner, so keep your eyes peeled for all the hidden pieces of the monster Ghouliana is trying to reanimate. Sink your fangs into over 80 pages of intricate, hand-drawn, spooktacular designs presented in a high-quality, deluxe coloring format.

“The Beauty of Horror 3: Haunted Playgrounds, Another GOREgeous Coloring Book” by Alan Robert arrives in stores July 2018 from IDW Publishing.
