Ghostly Haunts #31

Charlton's Ghostly Haunts #31 promises another unsettling trip into the spirit world, and the cover by Jack Abel sets the tone immediately — a massive, looming octopus surges out of the darkness as armed soldiers open fire and a terrified blonde woman desperately scrambles to escape its grasping tentacles, all beneath the teaser "Sewer Patrol" and the chilling tagline that the most dangerous jungle in the world lies beneath the streets of New York City. Inside, Joe Gill and Don Perlin deliver "The Fugitive," one of those tightly wound supernatural tales that Charlton did so well in 1973. At just 20 cents, this is an inviting slice of eerie, creature-feature horror for fans of the era.
