Ghostly Haunts #49

Charlton's Ghostly Haunts #49 delivers a genuinely unsettling cover from Tom Sutton — a towering, flame-wreathed guillotine rises against a blood-red sky, with a dark-robed figure crouched ominously at its base amid broken wheels and scattered debris. The small inset panel featuring a caped, fanged figure in the upper left corner hints at further terrors waiting inside, where Joe Gill's writing and Marti's art bring the aptly titled "Doorway to Hell" to life. A fine slice of Charlton's 1976 horror lineup for fans who appreciate atmosphere as much as chills.
