The 7th issue of this UK monster fan magazine was posted here at MONSTER MAGAZINE WORLD a couple of years ago. Since then, little else has surfaced regarding its publishing life. I'll reprint my original comment, which is about all I could find. Readers are cautioned that a term that's used for the Japanese as a title in one of the articles has fallen out of favor. As always, MMW believes in preserving the original content from materials that it posts here to maintain historical context.
WORLD OF HORROR is a bit of a mystery in the world of monster magazines. It spent itself in a year's time and left behind 9 rather middling examples of 1970s monster magazine goodness (erroneously indicated as 1972 in numerous examples around the web, but the 'zine was published during 1974/75). WOH was printed in London by Dallruth Publishing Group (also erroneously indicated as "Dalruth" in many sources), who during the same period published an occult magazine, NEW WITCHCRAFT, which contained, much like Gerald Page's COVEN 13/WITCHCRAFT & SORCERY, mostly fiction stories. An interesting amalgam of articles with a couple of short stories thrown in for good measure.
