Scary Tales #10

Charlton's Scary Tales #10 (1977) delivers the eerie atmosphere the series does so well, with cover art by Enrique Nieto setting a genuinely unsettling tone. The cover presents a shadowy dungeon-like corridor where a lone figure descends a staircase toward a barred door, behind which two silhouettes loom — while a separate vignette reveals a horrifying skeletal or decayed figure crouching in torchlit stone surroundings. With Joe Gill writing and Nieto handling both pencils and inks throughout, "Soul Survivor" promises the kind of creepy, atmospheric horror storytelling that made Charlton's anthology titles a staple of 1977 spinner racks.
