In "Experiment in Fear," a boy’s life takes a haunting turn when his mother discards his cherished talisman, a mysterious object imbued with power, believing it to be mere junk. Years later, his search leads him to a witch who holds the key to his past—and the truth behind the object’s strange influence. Written by Steve Skeates and brought to life with striking precision by Alex Toth, this eerie tale blends memory and mystery in a story that lingers long after the final page. The cover by Luis Dominguez captures the story’s unsettling mood with a haunting, dreamlike image.
