Berwyn: Horrorbles

Tucked away in a storefront on Roosevelt Road in Berwyn, Illinois, you will find everything you could ever want or need if you're trying to develop a horror or science fiction-style theme for a Website. As a matter of fact, "Horrorbles" is worth a stop even if you're just into the look of old-time movies and want to brush up on ideas for a "poster look" for a particular Web design. The owner can find you almost anything you need, and there is an enormous collection of merchandise that ranges from life-sized statues and costumes to masks, magazines, and collectible figurines.

Take your time and browse through the famous artwork of Basil Gogos or get ideas from the large poster collection at the store, which features posters dating from the 1950's to the present day. There are also plenty of movies and other media if you prefer to take your research home with you. You'll find everything from classic designs to more modern fare here, and if you're looking to do a unique theme in this type of genre, this is the place to find your muse.
