“Don't Double-Cross a Witch!”

In "Don't Double-Cross a Witch!", a man seeks a witch’s help when his lover is haunted by a malevolent spirit. With the spirit exorcised, he dares to kiss her—only to be stabbed to death, revealing the haunting was never about her, but about the past she couldn’t face. Gene Colan’s moody art brings the eerie tension to life, while Bill Everett’s cover captures the story’s chilling essence.

When a woman is possessed by an evil spirit, her suitor acquires the services of a witch to drive the spirit out. He approaches her to kiss her afterwards, no longer fearing violence, but she knifes him to death in response to a killing he had committed. It turns out that the evil spirit was the one that would not let her kill the evil man while she was possessed.
