Strange Mysteries #8 is an anthology issue containing at least two stories. "Mask of the Devil" recounts a dark medieval tale of a manuscript discovered in a ruined castle, warning of the Devil's child born long ago whose tortured screams once echoed within its walls. "Through Wicked Eyes" tells of Bill Devan, an average man who encounters a witch at a street corner and is cursed with supernatural vision that allows him to see spectral figures; after glimpsing a tropical disease victim, he becomes obsessed with obtaining the man's body, ultimately meeting a grim fate when his scheme is discovered and he is struck down.
