In "The Omen," a 1963 Dell ghost story, the fire department receives a frantic call from an estate ablaze—only to discover the caller was a cat, not the bedridden woman said to be trapped inside. Gerald McCann’s eerie, expressive artwork brings the unsettling mystery to life, turning a simple phone call into something far more unsettling.

In "Portrait of...?", a haunting tale from Ghost Stories #2 (1963), the renowned painter Corey Scott captures the likeness of a mysterious woman he glimpses in a Middle Eastern village—only to uncover a chilling truth behind her haunting beauty.

Plea for Help
