Published by NBM in 2012, it captures the chilling atmosphere of the original broadcasts with stories of horror, mystery, and suspense.

"Death of a Doll" is a chilling tale from Inner Sanctum: Tales of Mystery, Horror & Suspense #nn (2012), a standout entry in the series' long tradition of eerie, suspense-driven stories. Written and illustrated by Ernie Colon—handling every aspect from pencils to inks to letters—this issue follows Joe, a man haunted by guilt after stealing a wallet from a corpse, only to learn the man was a cataleptic, frozen in death-like stillness. When Joe hears the body has been buried, he races to the graveyard, driven by a desperate need to prevent a terrible suffocation. The cover by Ernie Colon perfectly captures the story’s creeping dread.
