Ghost Stories #15

Dell's Ghost Stories serves up maritime dread with this 1966 entry, featuring cover art by Frank Springer that pulls you straight into choppy, supernatural waters. The cover depicts a small rowboat crammed with sailors struggling against the waves while a ghastly skeletal specter looms overhead and a ghostly figure clutches a chest aboard the vessel — all against the backdrop of a full-sailed tall ship cutting through the storm. "Do you dare believe these stories?" the cover challenges, with "The Phantom Castaway" leading the bill of supernatural tales at just twelve cents.
