Alan Robert, bassist, and vocalist of Life of Agony is releasing a new line of his Beauty of Horror coloring and activity books, that will bring some early Halloween cheer to those bumming on 2020 so far. New releases due this fall include The Beauty of Horror 4: Creature Feature Coloring Book which pays homage to iconic horror movies with over 80 pages to color, The Beauty of Horror Tarot Card Decks, as featured on, and The Beauty of Horror: Haunt This Journal. You can purchase everything from the link below.
Alan comments:
“Before COVID-19 hit, I was booked for the rest of the year touring with my band Life of Agony,” explained Alan Robert. “But once large gathering restrictions went into effect and concerts were postponed until 2021, I found myself with a lot of unexpected time on my hands. I began drawing everyday and it really gave me a sense of purpose and something to focus on. Ironically, drawing all of these horrifying images distracted me from the real horrors going on outside my door.”
“Since the first Beauty of Horror coloring book release in 2016, Alan Robert has tapped into a unique activity space, where a highly engaged fandom eagerly awaits each new entry in the line. We know this range of new products, each a testament to the blood-curling charm of the brand, will send fans to their tables and desks — pencils at the ready! — to dive into more deliciously dark activities,” says IDW’s Justin Eisinger.

As Variety mentioned recently, The Beauty of Horror universe is set to expand in a big way with an animated series in development from Arrival and Bird Box scribe Eric Heisserer (under his Chronology banner), Rooster Teeth Studios (Transformers: War for Cybertron), and creator Alan Robert.
