Published by IPC Media, it ran for 73 issues in 1975–1976, when it merged with ''Buster''.〔("Monster Fun," ) ComicVine. Accessed Sept. 21, 2015.〕 Focused on humorous monster strips and stories, the magazine was known for "The Bad Time Bedtime Books" minicomic inserts, created by Leo Baxendale.
The nominal editor was "Frankie Stein" (a play on Frankenstein), a character who had previously appeared in the magazines ''Wham!'', ''Shiver and Shake'' and ''Whoopee!''.〔 Recurring artists included Robert Nixon, Tom Williams and Trevor Metcalfe.
The magazine was known for handing out free toys in its issues. The first issue, for instance, came with a free plate wobbler〔''Monster Fun'' #1 (14 June 1975).〕 (a novelty item consisting of an inflatable rubber bladder and a hand-operated pump; the bladder is placed under a plate, and inflating it makes the plate wobble). The second issue had a "Freaky Spider Rong", the third a "Super Shaking Skeleton".
