House of Secrets #153

A graveyard at midnight sets the stage for this September 1978 installment of DC's long-running horror anthology, with cover art by Jim Aparo capturing a chilling scene of apparent resurrection. A caped, sinister-looking man gestures confidently among the tombstones, boasting he'll prove his power by bringing Jennifer back to life — while a pale, wide-eyed woman with flowing blonde hair materializes behind him, arms outstretched as if newly awakened. Inside, Paul Levitz scripts "Quicksand" with art by Gerry Talaoc, promising the kind of eerie, twist-laden storytelling that made House of Secrets a staple of DC's horror line.
