John MitchellUndine

Fifty years ago, Captain John Mitchell of the trawler *Polestar* hauled up a fortune in gold from the shallow waters off Florida—but the treasure came with a price far stranger than any earthly cost. Deep beneath the waves, he made a promise to Undine, an ageless creature of the sea, and now she's calling to him across the decades, demanding he honor his word. As Mitchell's logbook reveals from a deserted mansion high in the Colorado Rockies, some debts to the ocean can never truly be paid.

The Case of the Haunted Boy
1 pp · non-fiction; horror-suspense

In 1950, *Adventures into the Unknown* documented "The Case of the Haunted Boy," a genuine paranormal incident that plagued a fourteen-year-old in Washington, D.C.—mysterious scratchings followed him through his home, his bed shook violently at night, and even when his family moved him to a parsonage under a minister's watch, the unseen forces persisted. Investigated by the Society for Parapsychology and Duke University, the case baffled experts and left everyone searching for answers about the strange forces at work.

When the Shaman Walked
7 pp · horror-suspense
Uncle MackWinnieCharley

Uncle Mack, a night watchman at a theatrical costume company, has grown fond of a shaman dummy in the showroom—so fond he dreams of the day it might walk and whisk him away to distant lands. When two escaped convicts break in and shoot him, the mysterious figure seems to come alive, its little bells chiming in the darkness, spurring the criminals to flee in terror. But their guilt and fear won't let them rest, and when they're drawn back to retrieve evidence of their crime, they find the showroom changed in ways that defy explanation.

The Man in the Mirror
5 pp · horror-suspense

A research chief for a supernatural magazine dismisses a mad inventor's claims about discovering a fourth dimension hidden within mirrors—until the man forces him to look through a strange machine and vanishes into the night. Now the researcher begins to notice unsettling details in his everyday world, and he realizes the inventor's parting warning might be terrifyingly true. "The Man in the Mirror," from *Adventures into the Unknown* #9, is a deliciously paranoid descent into doubt and dread that asks: what if you couldn't trust your own perception of reality?

DantePietro

When the great poet Dante dies in 1321, a precious treasure is lost—the missing thirteenth canto of his masterwork "Paradise." His son Pietro searches tirelessly for the hidden manuscript, but skeptics dismiss the effort as futile until a mysterious nocturnal visitor delivers an impossible message. This 1950 account from "Adventures into the Unknown" explores whether the boundary between life and death truly held firm, or whether a poet's unfinished legacy proved stronger than death itself.

The Boy Who Could Fly!
8 pp · fantasy
Bobby WilsonJohnny

Bobby Wilson discovers he can fly when a spectral voice—seemingly his father, lost in a P-47 crash—grants him the power and calls him to help those in danger. As Bobby answers each mysterious summons, he rescues a dog from oncoming traffic, saves a sleepwalker plummeting from a ledge, and prevents a train disaster, earning him the city's admiration as "the Saving Spirit." But with each miraculous act, Bobby finds himself drawn deeper into his father's otherworldly purpose, unable to resist the call.
