After School Special is the sixth cassette by Marilyn Manson & the Spooky Kids, released in 1991, and the fourth cassette to be sold publicly.

Packaging

After School Special came in a cassette case with a simple, typewritten and photocopied fold-out insert. The front cover featured the band's logo above a photograph of a young Jeffrey Dahmer. The only interior artwork is a photograph, apparently from the 1950s, of a laughing boy with a blond crew-cut carrying a metal lunchbox.

Trivia

  • After School Special included the first official recording of "Lunchbox", albeit with a different chorus than the album version released on Marilyn Manson's debut album Portrait of an American Family in 1994.
  • After School Special also included the first official recording of "Cyclops", also slightly different from the album version released on Portrait of an American Family.
