Adventures into the Unknown #20

In "He Waits For Us in the Glacier!", a nuclear submarine stumbles upon a frozen alien preserved in ice—ancient, patient, and watching. For millennia, he has waited for humanity to destroy itself, and now, with the world armed with nuclear weapons, he believes the end is near.

In "I Lived a Ghost Story!", a real estate agent does his best to talk a man out of buying a haunted house, but the buyer is determined to spend the night. When the man is chased out by unseen spirits, the agent breathes a quiet relief—because he’s one of them, and he’d rather not have to share his home with a living stranger.

In "I Saw the Other World!", a man desperate to be believed claims a mysterious camera captures images from a hidden dimension. When a skeptical stranger witnesses a sudden lightning strike that erases both the photos and the man from sight, the truth of the other world is left hanging—only for the stranger to return to his own realm, now the one struggling to convince others he ever saw Earth at all.

In "The Thing On Bald Mountain!", a sculptor's ambitious creation takes a terrifying turn when his statue of evil awakens and turns on him. Fleeing the nightmare, he finds unexpected salvation in the living form of his own statue of good—only to be swept into the depths of a dark swamp with his unlikely savior.

In "I Can See Tomorrow!", a thief steals a golden camera capable of capturing images of the future—first using it to predict the stock market and horse races with uncanny precision. But when he turns the lens on himself, he sees a chilling truth: his own future has already vanished.

A lone space pilot crash-lands on a distant world, only to discover it teems with towering giants—so vast that his ship feels like a toy. As he narrowly escapes the planet’s impossible scale, he finds himself grateful for the quiet, familiar size of his own universe.
