Shivers was a UK-based magazine that began publication in 1992. It was dedicated to horror movies, television shows and literature. It ceased publication in May 2008.

History[]

The first 12 issues were edited by Alan Jones and the next 120 by David Miller. Issue #1 appeared in June 1992. After David Miller left the company, the final half-dozen contained no editor credit. The last issue (number 138) appeared in mid-2008. The magazine was produced by Visual Imagination and regular contributors included David J. Howe, , Ingrid Pitt, Jonathan Rigby, Kim Newman, and Alex Wylie.

In 1997, an April Fools' prank was conducted on behalf of then-editor David Miller and The League of Gentlemen in which a news article was published in Shivers reporting on a fictional movie made by Val Lewton and "featuring Dracula, Frankenstein, Wolf Men and Cat People."

The magazine's regular features for much of its run included a News section written by Jones, an item called The Pitt of Horror by Pitt, a book review section by Howe, an Opinion column by Newman and an end-of-magazine film analysis called The Fright of Your Life originated by Patterson and continued by Rigby.
