About this item
Initially "Dracula Prince Of Darkness" was a cult 1966 horror movie starring Cristopher Lee. Released in 1969, Dracula Prince Of Darkness was produced by Joe Mansano on the Duke label DU034 (but featuring the blue Joe label) with the great instrumental Honky by the Joe's All Stars on the flip. It was the very first title in the King Horror series and one of the very best tracks. It is widely believed that it is Laurel Aitken who is performing on it!
This irresistible track "Ghost Horror" was the last in the King Horror series and was only released as a B-side on a white label that never got released. This was in 1970 on the Reggae label. Reggae was a subsidiary of UK label Doctor Bird and only released around ten singles between 1969 and 1970, all highly collectibles including tracks by King Horror, The Message, Pama Dice and the Skinhead Reggae instrumental classic "Tea House" by The Opening. Ghost Hours is not the most famous King Horror track but it is the rarest and is, in our humble opinion, one of King Horror's very best tracks and a fantastic companion of the Prince of Darkness on the flip...
