Gene Colan (host)

In "One Little Indian!", a guilt-ridden businessman haunted by a gypsy’s curse finds himself unraveling as paranoia takes hold—every shadow of a Native American figure sends him into terror. But when the truth behind the omen finally reveals itself, it’s not the image he feared that claims him, but the weight of his own deceit in a moment of final, fatal reckoning.

Tom Sutton (host)

In this chilling tale from *Tower of Shadows* #4, the haunted house—alive with malevolent intent—watches as Soviet spies take shelter within its walls, using its structure to build a device aimed at destroying a nearby plutonium plant.

Tom Sutton, the story’s host, sets the stage with a quiet dread that lingers long after the final page.
