In "Don't Try to Outsmart the Devil!", a woman stranded by a broken-down car stumbles into a haunted house where women have vanished—only to be met by a mysterious, bundled figure she assumes is the killer. When a second man bursts in, the truth unfolds in a chilling twist: the stranger had been posing as the killer to lure and destroy him, avenging his wife’s murder. With moody art by Don Perlin and inks by Abe Simon, and a haunting cover by Bill Everett, this 1952 tale of suspense and deception delivers a classic horror punch in a 10-cent comic.
