Crypt of Horror #6
In "The Girl of the Moonpool," a tense journey across a treacherous river takes a chilling turn when a werewolf hires a boatman to ferry him to the other side—under the strict condition that not a single drop of water touch him. With the boatman boasting of his skill, the crossing seems safe… until the sky opens up and rain begins to fall. Mort Lawrence’s stark, expressive art brings the mounting dread to life, while Lee Elias’s cover captures the eerie, moonlit tension of the tale.

A werewolf hires a boatman to get him across the river but warns the man that water causes a violent reaction among his kind and if a single drop touch him, his life is forfeit. The boatman agrees, as he claims to be the best boatman for miles around and will have no problem keeping the werewolf dry. They cross the river without incident, but then it starts to...rain.
