In "The Man Who Died Twice!" from Marvel Tales #101 (1951), a man haunted by the voice of his murdered wife seeks help from a psychologist, who suggests a strange remedy: a South American parrot that doesn’t speak English. When the bird begins repeating the accusatory voice, the man’s grip on reality shatters. Gene Colan handles both pencils and inks for the eerie interior art, while Sol Brodsky and Christopher Rule bring the unsettling cover to life.

A man murders his stuttering wife and hears her voice accusing him. A psychologist friend recommends getting a parrot from South America that knows no English and leaving it in the room he hears the voice in. If the bird does not imitate the voice, then he knows he is just imagining it. The bird does imitate the ghost, however, and angry man lunges out the window attempting to silence it but falls to his death.
