Dead of Night #7

In "Corpse in the Streets," Dr. Yorke unleashes a chilling experiment, reanimating a corpse to harvest organs and fund a luxury fur coat for his wife—only to find his creation develops a mind of its own. As the corpse begins to see beyond its grim purpose, its loyalty shifts in a way no scientist could predict.

In "The 13th Floor!" from Dead of Night #7 (1974), a man’s desperate plea to Death to return to Earth to care for his dying wife comes at a terrible cost—when he arrives, he finds her gone, and his second chance has become a permanent farewell. The story unfolds with quiet dread, exploring the weight of promises made in the shadow of loss.

In "Deluge!", a lone scientist’s radical theory—that magnetism, not gravity, holds the universe together—leads him to build a machine aimed at the moon. When the experiment triggers a catastrophic rise in ocean levels, his tower is swallowed by the flood, and he struggles to shut it down before it’s too late. A determined major from a nearby base, unwilling to risk further disaster, takes matters into his own hands and destroys the machine, saving the world from drowning.
