House of Secrets #97
In "The Curse of Morby Castle," a 1972 DC horror tale, John uses a dark ritual to spirit away his conscience—literally—only to find his body now haunted by the very soul he tried to destroy. Written by Steve Skeates and brought to life with moody, expressive art by Jim Aparo, this eerie story blends psychological dread with supernatural stakes. The haunting cover by Jack Sparling perfectly captures the tale’s creeping unease.
