In "The Giant from the Tomb," the Purple Claw ventures into the Florida swamps, where he encounters a mysterious old man whose true nature is far more terrifying than it first appears. Beneath the surface of the humid night, something ancient and monstrous stirs—something that blooms with a hunger for human flesh. Art by Ben Brown and David Gantz brings the eerie swamp setting to life with haunting detail, making this 1954 10-cent tale a standout in the Tales of Horror series.
