Jack Davis's Tales from the Crypt #[nn]

In "Bats in My Belfry!", a hearing-impaired actor seeks a radical cure from a mysterious practitioner, agreeing to a bizarre procedure that grafts the senses of a bat onto his own. As his hearing sharpens beyond human limits, he begins to experience unsettling changes—physical and instinctual—hinting at a transformation he never anticipated. The line between man and creature blurs, leaving him trapped in a nightmare of heightened senses and growing dread.

In "Lower Berth!", the Crypt Keeper recounts the bizarre and ancient tale of how his parents met—centuries ago, when a 4000-year-old Egyptian mummy crossed paths with a two-headed corpse in a forgotten tomb. The story unfolds with a mix of macabre charm and unexpected romance, set in a world where death and destiny are written in the dust of history.

In "Mirror, Mirror, on the Wall!", a man recounts the eerie moment he awakened inside a grotesque, stitched-together body crafted from artificial parts, his mind transferred into a monstrous form. Trapped in a warped carnival hall of mirrors, he stumbles through endless reflections—each one a twisted, ghastly version of himself—until the sight becomes unbearable.

In the quiet, moon-drenched hills of a rural American town, a sheriff’s swift justice turns deadly when he executes a Hungarian immigrant and his two sons, blaming them for a pair of gruesome murders under the silvery light of a full moon. The younger son, haunted by the truth, suspects the real monster is the very man who claimed to protect them—and as suspicion turns to desperate action, the line between hunter and hunted begins to blur. But the deeper the boys dig, the more terrifying the truth becomes: the wolf they seek may be closer than they ever imagined.
