Massacre Records released new vinyl versions of six KING DIAMOND albums in March:

* The Spider's Lullabye (1995)
* The Graveyard (1996)
* Voodoo (1998)
* House Of God (2000)
* The Puppet Master (2003)
* Give Me Your Soul ... Please (2007)

These gatefold LPs are strictly limited and handnumbered. The six vinyls are in different vinyl colors.

Massacre Records is planning to release "At The Graves", the long-awaited three-disc DVD set from KING DIAMOND. "This has taken so much longer than expected because of so many technical issues that I won't bore you to death, but we recently acquired a brand new noise-reduction program that we're using to enhance all the footage, and it's amazing how much better everything is beginning to look compared to the original tapes," the band's singer and namesake wrote in an October 2009 online posting.

The exact release date for "At The Graves" has not yet been officially announced.

On October 13, 2009, Metal Blade Records re-released KING DIAMOND's "The Spider's Lullabye" and "The Graveyard" albums. Both LPs were remastered by KING DIAMOND guitarist Andy La Rocque and each title includes bonus material that purchasers are able to obtain digitally. Both "The Spider's Lullabye" and "The Graveyard" include live "bootleg" versions (with video footage) of the following songs: "The Spider's Lullabye" from the album of the same name, and "Trick Or Treat" and "Up From The Grave" from "The Graveyard".
