Ghost Manor #4

Charlton's Ghost Manor #4 (1972) delivers a genuinely unsettling cover by Steve Ditko, showing a horrified man in a yellow coat recoiling as a swirling supernatural vision overtakes the room — ghostly footprints trail across the floor spelling out "Come Back to Tlakluk," while a skull-faced figure lounges eerily in an armchair amid churning spectral waters and a massive, looming face materializes from the chaos. The bold dare — "Visit Ghost Manor… If You Dare!!" — sets the tone perfectly for what promises to be a thoroughly eerie read. Inside, Joe Gill and Steve Ditko team up on all-new stories and art, including "A Winner's Curse," making this a fine example of early '70s Charlton horror at its atmospheric best.
