All Kaidan (オール怪談, Ōru Kaidan, lit. All Ghost Stories) was a horror anthology magazine published by Sōmasha, starting on September 5, 1997 and ending in Jul 7, 2000. The magazine's frequency was often changed, something unusual amongst Japanese horror manga magazines. It was succeeded by Super Horror (スーパーホラー), a magazine that lasted 4 issues.[1][2]
It shares its name with Hibari Shobo's rental horror manga anthology All Kaidan, to distinguish the two some collectors call the Sōmasha magazine Heisei All Kaidan.[3]
History
Sōmasha's previously published a line of horror manga volumes called Black Bunko, and on September 5, 1997 the first issue of All Kaidan was released.
The magazine had an irregular schedule until the 8th issue on March 4, 1999; after that it mostly followed a bimonthly frequency. The magazine lasted 8 more issues, the 16th issue was the final one.[4]
In September 2000 the magazine's successor[1] Super Horror had its first issue released, the cover art was done by Junji Ito.[5] The cover of the other 3 issues were drawn by Shinichi Koga.
After its discontinuation, both All Kaidan and Super Horror became rare items.[2]
