"Kathy Zielinski has been animating for over 25 years, first at Disney, where she animated such characters as Ursula in 'The Little Mermaid' and supervised the animation of Frollo in 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame'.
"She is currently animating at Dreamworks, where she has made the transition from the hand drawn 2D of 'Prince of Egypt' and 'Road to Eldorado' to computer animation in pictures like 'Shark Tale', Over the Hedge' and 'Kung Fu Panda'."
The first half of the book consists of these wonderful pencil drawings, likely development artwork, of a horror house and a Chernabog-like skeletal devil. The second half includes Tim Burton-esque creepers and Hunchback characters.
