Skrekk Magasinet #11/1973

Paul Drake dreams of standing on stage as a true concert violinist, but his talent earns him only mockery and gigs as a musical clown. When he hears the haunting legend of the cursed violin of Lajos, he sees a chance to finally prove himself—though the instrument may have a will of its own.

In the heart of a suffocating jungle, a desperate man named Horne flees a prison only to stumble upon a twisted sanctuary: a madman and his silent, obedient servant, who bind him to a life of backbreaking labor in a hidden diamond mine. Trapped between the horrors of his past and the relentless cruelty of his captors, Horne must survive not just the brutal work, but the chilling realization that freedom may be an illusion even in the deepest wilds.
