"Great Grandfather's Ghost" features a boy named Timmy whose deceased grandfather appears as a ghostly pet beetle named Elteeb, provided to keep the boy company and protect him from harm. In another story, a military leader who believes in ghosts directs soldiers in battle against an enemy, with one soldier named Roberts reporting that the enemy has been defeated, though the outcome appears influenced by supernatural intervention. A third tale involves a ship's crew cursed by a ghostly captain over a dispute regarding gold treasure, with the crew members quarreling and cursing one another as they are haunted during their voyage.
In "The Phantom Green Beret," the spirit of Sergeant Roberts returns to haunt his former commanding officer, guiding him through a desperate mission to turn the tide of war—only to exact a personal vengeance on the man who betrayed him. Written with a steady hand and drawn in stark, haunting detail, this 1966 tale from *Ghostly Tales* blends wartime tension with the chilling weight of unfinished business.
In "The Flying Dutchman," lighthouse operator Troy spots a mysterious ship on the horizon, a sight his companion dismisses as illusion. Drawn by unease and curiosity, Troy ventures out—only to find himself trapped aboard the ghostly vessel, caught in a nightmare beyond the edge of the known sea.
Mrs. Bibb seeks out the supernatural investigator Dr. M. T. Graves after her son Ronnie's life takes a troubling turn following his father Bob's death—the boy has abandoned his dreams of becoming a scientist and now obsesses over sports, driven by what may be his father's lingering influence from beyond the grave. Dr. Graves senses a possessive spirit at work and sets out to free the boy from his father's grip.
