"Welcome to My School" is a chilling tale from Tales of Horror #12 (1954), a standout issue drawn with eerie precision by Ellis Eringer, whose distinctive art brings the story’s dark fable to life. When a humble Tuscany peasant named Alberto Gasperi makes a fateful pact with a forest witch, his hunger for power spirals into a nightmare of his own making—set against the stark, haunting landscape of Mount Everest. The cover, a striking collaboration by Myron Fass, captures the story’s grim, otherworldly tone.
