The Howling Head

CynthiaTomLupus

Doctor Tom arrives in the isolated town of Sunset Glen to investigate a bizarre series of deaths—twelve bodies have vanished before burial, and the frightened locals whisper of supernatural forces. When he and his fiancée Cynthia take shelter in the long-abandoned Lupus Hall, they discover a wolf's head trophy that seems disturbingly alive, its eyes growing brighter as the night deepens, and they soon learn the horrifying truth behind the disappearances: the headless specter of Lupus himself has returned after a hundred years, summoning the dead to serve an unspeakable purpose.

The Spectral Storm Ship
1 pp

When Dutch settlers in early 1600s New York spot a ship miraculously surviving a terrible storm, they're relieved—until they realize it's sailing up the Hudson against all natural forces, crewed by motionless, ghostly sailors. This spectral vessel would return again and again following severe storms, earning its name and becoming a haunting legend among the Hollanders until the day New York fell to the British.

The Hands of Horror

Henri FroissartPierre LamaitreProf. Rameau

When sculptor Henri Froissart writes from beyond the grave to expose his murderer, he reveals a tale of artistic rivalry, jealousy, and supernatural vengeance that consumed his rival Pierre Lamaitre—a fellow protégé of Prof. Rameau whose hands could never match Froissart's delicate artistry. Driven mad by years of failure and humiliation, Lamaitre uses forbidden occult knowledge to steal something far more sinister than fame, setting in motion a revenge that transcends death itself. In "The Hands of Horror," writer and artist capture a deliciously twisted supernatural twist on the old master-and-student rivalry, where artistic skill becomes the weapon and the curse.

When Volara closes in on everyone Bob cares about, he must confront the creatures of the night that have been hunting him since Korea. Written by the creative team of Adventures into the Unknown, "The Vampire's Bane" is a pulse-pounding 1951 tale where survival on the battlefield proves easier than survival against the supernatural.
