Tales of Horror #7

In "The Man Who Tricked the Devil!", Jeff Hagstone, a cunning lawyer with a taste for the macabre, attempts to outwit the Devil himself by drafting a series of intricate, contradictory contracts—each requiring a blood signature—hoping to exploit legal technicalities. As dawn approaches, the sheer number of signed documents drains him, leaving him on the brink of death, his final trick hanging in the balance.

In "Die For the Beggar," a compassionate woman’s act of kindness toward an old beggar sparks a twisted courtship that spirals into a chilling fate. When she learns he’s not who he seems—rich, ancient, and bound by a dark curse—her desperate attempts to flee only bring death to everyone around her. Now trapped in a love that defies time and life itself, she faces a destiny she never asked for.

In the isolated fog of the North Atlantic, a new lighthouse stands as a beacon of modernity—until its fog horn awakens a slumbering horror from the deep. A colossal prehistoric beast, drawn by the sound it mistakes for a call from its kind, rises from the ocean to lay waste to the remote island of San Noble and the lighthouse that summoned it. As the creature’s rampage threatens to consume all in its path, a battleship must answer the call—before the sea claims everything.

In "Dinky," a washed-up boxer desperate to reclaim his pride dons a werewolf costume to intimidate his rivals—only to find the mask has transformed him into something far more monstrous. As his rage takes over, the line between man and beast blurs, and the arena becomes a killing ground. When his final victim’s loyal wolfhound stands in his way, the truth of his curse may be the only thing left to face.
