1980s Graphic Design in Book Covers

Stephen King book covers are hugely influential when it comes to recreating a 1980s look for the suspense genres.

CONTEMPORARY EXAMPLES

Vulture interviewed the publisher about the cover design to the Stranger Things companion:

  • The same guy did the posters for the TV show
  • The writers as well as the designers were inspired by Stephen King
  • The distress was added after the design came back
  • That second-hand book sticker is from the fictional second-hand bookstore from within the world of the show
