“An Ancient Wrong”

Charlton's Scary Tales #23 (December 1980) features a cover by Sanho Kim that perfectly captures the creeping dread promised by the "Hell House — Home of the Damned" banner. A green-skinned, ghoulish figure in a purple coat and hat clutches a man in a green suit who holds a flickering candle, calling out "Nancy, darling, where are you?" — only for the unseen terror to answer, "I'm right here, dearest!" Inside, Joe Gill and Sanho Kim deliver "An Ancient Wrong," a tale that sounds every bit as unsettling as that chilling cover exchange suggests.
