House of Mystery #232

A masked ball turns sinister on Luis Dominguez's cover, where a grinning skeleton in a top hat clasps a smiling man by the face while a red-haired woman looks on — all surrounded by costumed partygoers, floating balloons, and a clock ticking toward midnight. The tagline "The Last Tango in Hell!" promises the kind of chilling twist that made DC's 1975 horror anthologies so irresistible. Inside, David Michelinie, Russell Carley, and artist Ramona Fradon deliver the eerie goods for anyone bold enough to enter the House of Mystery.
