Spooky Haunted House #5

Harvey Comics' Spooky the Tuff Little Ghost: Haunted House #5 from 1973 is a delightful slice of Harvey charm, featuring the little ghost himself so absorbed in a book of "Spooky Ghost Stories" that he hasn't noticed the very porch he's standing on has come alive — its columns twisting into grasping hands and the front door glowering down at him with angry, narrowed eyes. The bright red haunted house makes for a wonderfully eerie backdrop, and the cover's left side cheerfully previews the full Harvey lineup inside, with portrait panels spotlighting Spooky, Poil, Casper, the Ghostly Trio, and Wendy. At just 20 cents, this 1973 issue captures everything fun about Harvey's ghost-filled universe in one neatly spooky package.
