Dead Man's Gold
8 pp · horror-suspense
Josiah BlackMartin BonnyJane Bonny

When Martin and Jane Bonny vacation on a remote Maine island rumored to hold the buried treasure of the infamous pirate Captain Josiah Black, a chance discovery in an underwater cave draws them into something far darker than fortune-hunting. After claiming the gold for themselves, they're visited by a ghostly figure demanding the return of his cursed hoard—and a reckoning with forces that have waited centuries for revenge. Their attempt to reclaim what they took sets loose something neither the living nor the dead should disturb.

The Man Who Died Laughing
4 pp
Titus GraemeHerman

When the police discover two bodies in the rubbish-filled Graeme mansion, they find Titus Graeme dead—and mysteriously frozen in laughter—but the real horror lies with his cousin Herman. Twenty years earlier, when Herman fell gravely ill, the occult-obsessed Titus saw an opportunity: using forbidden knowledge to preserve the corpse while keeping it mobile and responsive, he could continue collecting Herman's trust fund checks without anyone knowing the truth. Now, as two decades of isolation and avarice finally reach their brutal conclusion, the secrets of "The Man Who Died Laughing" are about to be exposed.

The Clasp Knife
1 pp
Roger GorhamRocco Janiro

When mobster Rocco Janiro thinks he's beaten a murder rap for the death of Roger Gorham—no body, no evidence—supernatural justice has other plans. "The Clasp Knife" delivers a chilling 1954 tale of how the crime scene evidence itself becomes the instrument of a killer's reckoning, complete with an eerie detail that defies all rational explanation.

The Last Bars

Roger HarleyMr. Trommers

When composer Roger Harley is found dead in his apartment, a concerned friend discovers the musician's nearly completed symphony—a work Harley seemed driven to finish before his untimely passing. But the next morning brings a discovery that challenges everything about that fateful night, as Mr. Trommers finds evidence that defies a simple explanation. "The Last Bars" is a haunting 1954 tale that leaves readers to draw their own conclusions about the boundary between obsession and the impossible.

Kenneth MardierHarvey TurnerMr. CameronGeorge LoomisWillis Thornton

When scientist Kenneth Mardier unveils his "Crime Machine"—a ruthless electronic judge, jury, and executioner designed to dispense swift justice without appeal—the legal establishment recoils in horror. Enraged by their rejection, Mardier feeds the machine false evidence against the very bar association officers who condemned it, unleashing a mechanical terror that hunts down its targets with unstoppable precision. What begins as the scientist's revenge spiral transforms into something far darker as the machine pursues its own relentless logic to its shocking conclusion.
