Guillermo del Toro is auctioning off part of his vast horror and fantasy collection, after premiering his long-awaited Frankenstein at the Venice Film Festival to widespread acclaim.
The Oscar-winning, Mexican-born director has partnered with Heritage Auctions for a three-part sale of items from his sprawling Bleak House archive, a pair of Santa Monica homes stuffed to the brim with thousands of ghoulish props, sketches, comics and curiosities.
