    I remember these from the mid 80s.They were part of a series,vampire,wolfman etc and a giant spider.They were quite gory and the fangs on the pictures would glow in the dark and the eyes too i think.I cant be 100% sure but i think they came free with weetabix or some other ceral.Anyone else remember them?

    Yep, the specific name for them was "Scary Stickers". I can confirm they came with Weetabix. There was 6 stickers in the range and I agree that they they were probably a bit too graphic for smalle kids (especially considering we'd be staring at them in the dark of our bedrooms at night) :)

    The six stickers were (not official names!) "Vampire", Werewolf , Spider , Crystal Skull , Bloodied Ghost and Red Skull (which I called 'Baal' because this exact picture ended up on the front cover of a computer game of the same name a few years later.

    Here's an article about them http://cobwebbedroom.blogspot.com/2008/03/weetabix-free-scary-sticker.html

    I vaguely remember them. We had glow in the dark stickers at home but they weren't scary. I think they came free with the Beano. God knows what was making them glow in the dark - plutonium or something

    I loved these, (Better than the Casper ones)
    It was great that it was a normal coloured pic in day time and glowed
    at night.. Rather than just having a black and white sticker that was obviously a glowy.
