In "Death Knell of the World!", Cal takes a lease on a remote house haunted by the disappearance of its last tenant—only to find a window that admits no light at all. When he climbs through it, he steps into a surreal, shadowed dimension where he reunites with the missing woman and must guide her through eerie, mist-like beings to safety. The journey back to reality ends with a decisive act: Cal smashes the window, severing the link to the other world. Art by Werner Roth, with a striking cover by Steve Ditko and Rocco Mastroserio, this 1977 Alan Class issue delivers a chilling, atmospheric tale of isolation and escape.

In "The Things in the Window," Cal takes a lonely rental in a remote house haunted by silence—and a window that drinks the light. When he climbs through it, he steps into a warped realm where the missing tenant waits, and both must flee from shadowy, shifting things that dwell just beyond sight. The story unfolds with quiet dread, its eerie atmosphere rooted in the uncanny stillness of the house and the terrifying mystery of what lies beyond the glass.
