Horror Business
Plan 9: PL1009 June 1979
1 Horror Business
2 Teenagers From Mars
Children In Heat
Format: 7" EP
Pressing: 5000 yellow vinyl copies (some double A sided)
25 black vinyl promotional copies
Insert: Some yellow vinyl copies came with a haunted house insert with
a bogus story to explain sounds that occurred during the
recording session:
"On February 28, 1979, the Misfits and a
mobile recording unit entered an abandoned
haunted house in northern New Jersey. They
recorded and left. While mixing the tapes
back at a NYC recording studio, strange voices
and noises were heard in the background. No
explanation of these sounds could be given by
the band or the recording crew."
Notes: 2000 copies of the record sleeve were made with a different
back cover (group shot of band) but the majority were destroyed
due to a bad printing job (black ink came out very light).
About 14 were saved by Bobby Steele and Barry Henssler of the
Necros but never glued together or sold. Originally these had
no accompanying singles, but some EP's have been circulated with
the alternate sleeve replacing the orginal.
