Haunted Tales #19

In "The Murderer," a lonely dwarf named Terwit retreats to a clock tower after years of torment, leaving the clock frozen at midnight. Decades later, a group of grown men—once his tormentors—return to the tower, only to vanish in terror. Written and illustrated entirely by Alex Toth, this chilling tale blends quiet dread with a haunting atmosphere, while Joe Orlando’s stark cover captures the story’s unsettling mood.
