In "The Beast in All Men," Avis Drood settles into a secluded castle with her husband, only to be warned never to step outside after dark. Curiosity pulls her into the night, where she uncovers a terrifying truth about the Drood family that defies reason. Written, drawn, and inked by Tom Sutton, this eerie tale from Ghostly Haunts #40 (1974) blends gothic dread with psychological unease, all rendered in Sutton’s signature moody style. The cover, also by Sutton, captures the story’s haunting atmosphere with stark, shadowed lines.
