Bucket O'Blood Books & Records

Lots of interesting books on the shelves and a nice spread of vinyls across multiple genres. DVDs and other items they have are also worth looking at! Easy to end up spending a long while looking around and trying to decide how to spend your money.

Whether you're looking for a book, record, or a horror cult classic on physical format, this is the place to go. Owners are incredible people who make you feel welcome from the second you walk through the door. One of the best record stores in Chicago, especially if you are into heavy metal. Good prices. Wide selection. Highly recommend.

A very unique and Amazing book store along with music records and accessories with a focus on spooky stuff. A great collection of items in one place and a great ambience. Comic books Collection was impressive with manga and recipe comic books as an unusual but cool category.

Absolutely a must visit when I am in town. This is my version of heaven, an incredibly well-curated collection of sci-fi, fantasy, horror, manga, graphic novels, dvds, vhs tapes, and vinyl. Warm and welcoming and knowledgeable staff. Book collection ranging from obscure, out of print, hard to find to mainstream new releases. Obsessed.

What a cool bookstore! I got many recommendations to visit and was so curious about the name so when I finally got the chance to go I was impressed! So many horror, fantasy, queer, history, and other books. They also have DVDs, manga, comics, vinyl, and even cassettes! I hear they have events there too like live music, I’d love to go back and see one!
