Adventures into Terror #7
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Thing That Grew!", a desperate scientist uses a mysterious projector to banish his enemies to another world, but when one returns—terrified and desperate—he’s forced to confront the consequences of his creation. With the beam still active and other victims trapped on the other side, the man stands at a crossroads, torn between saving them and risking an invasion. The story ends with a chilling direct appeal to the reader: "What would you do?" — a haunting moment drawn in the wild, exaggerated style of Basil Wolverton, whose bold art defines the issue’s eerie tone. The cover, a dynamic collaboration by George Tuska and Joe Maneely, captures the story’s escalating dread.
In "The Thing That Grew!" from Adventures into Terror #7 (1951), Professor Borglum's scientific experiment takes a terrifying turn when his blood accidentally merges with a mysterious substance, giving rise to a monstrous entity that feeds on human blood and grows uncontrollably. As the creature spreads death and chaos, Borglum must confront the horrifying consequences of his creation and race to stop it before it's too late.
In "Where Monsters Dwell," a scientist’s experiment with a mysterious projector spirals into terror when he sends his enemies to a world of horrors—only to have one return, desperate and changed. With the device still active, the surviving victims plead for rescue, but the man who opened the portal now faces an impossible choice: unleash the monsters by turning it back on, or leave them to die. He turns to the reader, asking, “What would you do?”
