Mystic #61

In "The Thirteenth Floor," a lonely hotel employee becomes the sole witness to a spectral floor long lost to time—a cursed 13th floor that vanished in a fire sixty years prior. As he ventures into the forgotten space, drawn by the ghostly allure of its hidden jewels, the building itself seems to remember the flames, and the elevator cable snaps beneath him.

In "Mister Backwards!" from Mystic #61 (1957), a man acquires an hourglass that reverses time with every flip—until he tries to destroy it and finds himself trapped within its endless rewind. The story unfolds with quiet dread as the line between past and present blurs, leaving him caught in a loop he can’t escape.

In "The Face in the Mirror!" from Mystic #61 (1957), a desperate criminal begins to believe his reflection is changing—growing more feral with each violent act. When he sees his face in a mirror and flees in terror, he crashes into the street, unaware the glass was never real.
