Haunt of Fear #26

In "Marriage Vow," a woman returns from the grave to keep her wedding promise—though her idea of devotion is far from what her husband expected. Haunted by betrayal and buried alive for her fortune, she rises with a chilling grace, determined to fulfill her vow in the only way she can: forever. The Old Witch hosts this tale of love, vengeance, and the terrible price of a promise made in blood.

In "The Shadow Knows," a man haunted by his own guilt finds his darkest companion in the form of his dead wife’s shadow, which follows him after he murders her to marry another. As the shadow disrupts his new life and twists the truth in a fatal frame-up, he’s forced to confront the weight of his crime—only to be condemned by a jury that sees only the evidence of his guilt. The Vault-Keeper warns: some shadows never fade, and some secrets are too heavy to carry to the grave.

In "Spoiled," the Old Witch spins a chilling tale of betrayal and grotesque retribution, where a surgeon’s wife and her lover face a horrifying punishment for their affair—transformed into a twisted, fused pair whose fates are forever entwined in a way no one could have foreseen.

In "Comes the Dawn!", a man trapped in a remote Arctic cabin fights to survive the night as a vampire prowls just beyond his barricaded door. With the sun his only hope, he begins to wonder if dawn will ever come—or if the endless night will claim him first. The Crypt-Keeper watches, as always, from the shadows.
