Phantasmagoria first appeared in 2017, the debut issue landing on Hallowe’en of that year. Inspired by the British genre publications of the 1970s, ’80s and early-’90s, its ethos has always been to celebrate horror, fantasy and science fiction in its many varying forms, paying tribute to the masters of the past whilst looking ahead to the future.
In 2019, the spin-off Special Edition Series was launched, each volume focused on a specific genre writer or theme. Special Editions so far have been dedicated to R. Chetwynd-Hayes, The Lovecraft Squad series of books edited by Stephen Jones, M.R. James, Ramsey Campbell, Karl Edward Wagner, Brian Lumley and Fantasy Tales.
Contributors to Phantasmagoria have included such highly respected names in the field as (in alphabetical order) Clive Barker, Ramsey Campbell, Neil Gaiman, Stephen Jones, Stephen King, Joe R. Lansdale, Samantha Lee, Thomas Ligotti, Alison Littlewood, Brian Lumley, Graham Masterton, Michael Moorcock, Kim Newman, David J. Schow, David A. Sutton and Steve Rasnic Tem, along with many others, alongside artwork by the likes of Randy Broecker, Dave Carson, Les Edwards, Stephen E. Fabian, Allen Koszowski, David Lloyd, Jim Pitts, Roberto Segate, Andrew Smith, and more.
