“He Walks with a Ghost!”

In "He Walks with a Ghost!", a ruthless thug inherits a cursed estate dotted with graves, prompting him to hire a steam shovel to clear the land. After the worker flees in terror upon uncovering bones, the man takes matters into his own hands—only to fall asleep beneath a tree, awoken by the eerie sound of the machine moving on its own. As the steam shovel bears down, he glimpses something chilling through the cab window. Written by Stan Lee and illustrated by Sid Greene, this eerie tale from 1953 delivers a chilling, suspenseful ride with haunting visuals from cover to cover.

A thug inherits an estate that has a cemetery on it so he hires a steam shovel to dig it up. When the worker uncovers human remains, he runs away frightened. The thug gets up into the cab himself to disinter the remains, but grows weary with the work after awhile and sits down under a tree to sleep. He is woken by the sound of the steam shovel but is puzzled as to who could be driving it. It bears down upon him and just before the claw descends, he sees corpses through the cab window.
