Strange Tales of the Unusual #10

"Menace of the Unseen Man" introduces a chilling twist on the classic "hidden machine" trope, set in a small town where a forgotten device has quietly trapped beings from another dimension for decades. Written by Carl Wessler and illustrated by Paul Reinman with inks by John Tartaglione, the story unfolds with eerie precision as a man uncovers his grandfather’s secret and recklessly tests its power—only to vanish himself. The cover by John Severin captures the story’s unsettling atmosphere, a 10-cent marvel from 1957 that still holds its eerie charm.
