Forbidden Worlds #10

A passenger plane crashes on an uncharted Pacific island, leaving the survivors to face an even deadlier threat—a mysterious creature that hunts them under cover of darkness. As Dr. Vinson and the others grapple with mounting deaths and Edith's terrifying account of a half-human, half-bat attacker, they must determine whether the vampire is real or born from shock and desperation. With the creature striking night after night, the castaways' only hope lies in separating truth from superstition before it's too late.

In "Bride of Doom," Joe finds himself uneasy as he prepares to stand as best man at his friend’s wedding—especially when the bride remains shadowed in mystery, refusing photos and hiding her honeymoon plans. With whispers of past weddings ending in vanishings, Joe must confront the growing dread that this union may be the final, fatal chapter.

When detective Ed Malone investigates a series of disappearances connected to a disbarred scientist named Dr. Brann, he discovers the doctor has built a sinister atomic machine that warps time and age itself—and worse, the mad-dog killer Joe Vortix, who Malone once sent to the electric chair, is somehow still alive. Malone must navigate Dr. Brann's nightmarish estate, where the machine's horrifying effects transform its victims in unpredictable ways, while racing to save those trapped inside before the doctor perfects his diabolical creation.

Paul Andrews, a collector with a taste for forbidden artifacts, steals a sacred wooden idol from a native Jamaican cemetery—and finds himself pursued by both the local natives and something far more sinister when Rada's curse takes hold. With his sister Meg and her husband Carl watching helplessly, Paul must face the supernatural consequences of his theft as voodoo magic and an irresistible force converge on the plantation in "The Curse of Rada!" From Forbidden Worlds #10 (1952), this tale of grave-robbing and spiritual vengeance will test whether greed can survive the wrath of the dead.
