The Witching Hour #55

That unsettling punchline — "Come in, you were dying to meet my parents, weren't you?" — sets the tone perfectly for this June 1975 entry in DC's horror anthology series. The cover by Luis Dominguez delivers a memorably chilling scene: a cheerful young couple stepping through a doorway, blissfully unaware that the skeletal figures lounging in the parlor ahead of them are anything but welcoming hosts. Featuring the story "Kiss the Boys …And Make Them Die" with interior work by Carl Wessler and Ernesto B. Patricio, this issue is a fine example of the darkly witty horror comics DC was serving up at the height of the Bronze Age.
