With Mike Sekowsky’s moody art and Mike Peppe’s sharp inks bringing the eerie atmosphere to life, this haunting tale from 1954 delivers a chilling twist on a classic folkloric curse.

In "Feast of the Ghouls," a coterie of elite gourmets—drawn together by their taste for the forbidden—travel the globe to indulge in a dark, secret ritual. By night, their refined palates give way to monstrous transformations, their skin turning blue as they feast beneath the cover of darkness.
A delusional artist's rage spirals out of control when his dreams of gallery success crumble, pushing him toward increasingly violent acts in this haunting tale of fractured ambition and madness. As Joel Gaines' delusions of greatness collide with bitter reality, those closest to him—and those who stand in his way—find themselves caught in the path of a disturbed mind spiraling toward destruction. Dr. Marks recounts the cautionary case to a journalist, laying bare the dangers of untreated mental illness prowling the city streets.
In "The Unbeliever," a young couple ventures into a mist-laden bog in Northern England, drawn into a chilling encounter with a witch who seeks to steal the young woman’s life. Written with eerie precision and brought to life by the stark, atmospheric art of the era, the story unfolds as a tense battle of wills between faith and dark magic.
