Kiss finally released the album in 1997. The last track, "I Walk Alone," was the only lead vocal performance on a Kiss album by guitarist Bruce Kulick.

- Carnival of Souls was a low-budget "B" film ($33,000 in 1962) that did mediocre business on release, but has become a cult classic; enough of one to merit a Criterion DVD release.

The plot is hard to summarize without spoilers, but its essence is a young woman who perceives, with gradually increasing frequency, images of a horrid, deformed stranger (as, for example, a temporary appearance in a mirror). The screw tightens until, at the climax, we find out who The Man is and why she has been receiving these visitations.

| abstract | - Carnival of Souls was a low-budget "B" film ($33,000 in 1962) that did mediocre business on release, but has become a cult classic; enough of one to merit a Criterion DVD release. In fact, some people consider it to be the best "B" movie ever made. The plot is hard to summarize without spoilers, but its essence is a young woman who perceives, with gradually increasing frequency, images of a horrid, deformed stranger (as, for example, a temporary appearance in a mirror). The screw tightens until, at the climax, we find out who The Man is and why she has been receiving these visitations. The movie is a case of an obscenely high-number of routine, standard tropes that more or less accidentally happen to work to a whole greater than the sum of the parts (or of the makers' designs and--arguably--capabilities). Along with a handful of other films, it also has the distinction of being riffed twice by Mike Nelson: First on the colorized DVD released by Legend Films, the second time with help from Kevin Murphy and Bill Corbett on Riff Trax. In 1998, a Wes Craven-produced remake was released, which received mixed, mostly-negative reviews. While it, too, is available on DVD, it's a pretty safe bet that it won't ever get a Criterion release.

Two former members of Black 'N Blue co-wrote songs on this album: vocalist Jaime St. James co-wrote "In My Head", while guitarist and future Kiss member Tommy Thayer collaborated on "Childhood's End".
