☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Edge of Darkness," adventurer Larry Graham survives a cave-in in Peru—only to transform into a monstrous mole driven by a hunger for human blood. As he stalks the dark tunnels beneath the Andes, his descent into violence leads him to confront the rival who left him for dead. George Roussos handles both art and inks for the interior, while Nick Cardy delivers the striking cover.
In a remote mountain village a century past, the accused witch Lottie Gaunt is banished to the cursed woods—but not before she curses Adam Larkin, whose testimony condemned her. When Lottie and her dark sisters ensnare Adam's son-in-law Daniel Weaver, possessing his very soul to turn him into a weapon against his own wife Elaine, Adam must race against time to break the spell before tragedy strikes. This tale of witchcraft and vengeance builds to a desperate gamble where fire may be the only answer to an ancient evil.
Myles Willitson covets Calgarth, a grand English estate owned by Kraster and Dorothy Barr, and will stop at nothing to claim it—even framing them for theft to have them condemned to death. But as Willitson settles into his stolen home, he discovers that the Barrs made good on a chilling curse before their execution, and something far more sinister than guilt begins to haunt the halls of Calgarth.

In "Grip on Life," Tom Hawley is haunted not by guilt, but by the return of his wife, Linda—now a ghost—after a fatal accident. As the truth of her lingering presence unravels, the fragile line between memory and vengeance begins to break. With Monell, the crook who once worked with Tom, watching from the shadows, the past refuses to stay buried.
When Pete Marden seals his best friend alive in a Peruvian tomb to claim a woman's love, he reckons himself safe—until five years later, when a monstrous killer begins stalking the jungle, and Pete finds himself face-to-face with the inhuman thing his jealousy created. As Pete and his new wife aid authorities in hunting the beast, neither realizes the creature remembers them, or that vengeance has finally clawed its way back to the surface. A chilling tale of how guilt and cruelty exact their price in ways no man can escape.
