Amazing Screen Horrors, later retitled Sanctuary, was a fanzine published by Ray Fawcett of Croydon in the UK in the 1960s. Issues were apparently bi-monthly and cost 1/6.
Details are a little sketchy. David Griffiths reviewed the sixth issue in Gothique #6 (October 1966), implying the existence of five earlier issues although experience of fanzine numbering suggests this may not be a given. Griffiths said that the issue was duplicated with no interior artwork and the best article concerned the Gothic novel Varney the Vampire. He also said that each issue came with a 'filmbook', in the case of #6 The Bride of Dracula.
Ethel Lindsay reviewed Sanctuary v2#1 in Haverings #27 (May 1967), saying it was a retitling of Amazing Screen Horrors and issues were now 1/9. The issue included an article about Wonder Stories. The date of the Lindsay review may suggest the issue actually came out in 1967.
It's unknown if there were further issues.
