Creepy #9

In "Upon Reflection," Jaime, grief-stricken after his daughter’s death, discovers a way to cross into parallel worlds—each home to a version of himself. As he hunts these alternate selves, seeking one where his daughter still lives, he begins to question the cost of his desperate quest.

In this darkly comic one-pager from *Creepy* #9, Grandma Creepy delivers a scathing speech against mummy rights—only to get a taste of her own bigotry when she tumbles over her ottoman and winds up wrapped in bandages, just like the very beings she’s been denouncing.

In "The Red Knife," a new bride confronts a growing, unsettling urge to use a crimson kitchen knife—though she resists, choosing instead to slaughter what she thinks is a pig with her bare hands. The story unfolds with quiet dread, probing the thin line between ritual and madness, as her actions blur the edge of reality.

In "The Lurking Fate That Came to Lovecraft Part II: The Lovecraft Circle," H. P. Lovecraft, newly escaped from an asylum, makes his way to Miskatonic University’s observatory, drawn by a mysterious, glowing floor tile marked "the Lovecraft Circle." As he steps onto it, the ground splits open and Cthulhu rises, declaring that Lovecraft has fulfilled a terrible purpose—freeing him at last.

In "Boasting Ghosts," Sister Creepy's prank backfires when she accidentally unleashes the spirit of her long-dead ancestor, Mordicai Creepy, who vows to curse her with a grotesque transformation. But when he boasts too loudly, she turns the tables—literally—on him with a quick, spiteful twist of her own.
