Classic Pulp #1
"The Living Ghost" kicks off with a pulse-pounding mystery: a series of bizarre, violent accidents—train wrecks, stranglings, cars hurled off cliffs—leave investigators baffled. When a man claiming to be Malevo, Satan’s first lieutenant, emerges from the shadows, his search for a queen sets the stage for something far darker than mere coincidence. Written by Frank Belknap Long and illustrated by Fred Guardineer, this atmospheric tale unfolds with a classic pulp edge, its eerie tone perfectly captured in Joshua Werner’s striking cover.
