Written by Kurato Osaki and brought to life with moody, expressive art by Ogden Whitney—both interior and cover—this 1963 tale blends ghostly intrigue with a quiet, character-driven tension. The cover by Whitney captures the story’s unsettling atmosphere, perfectly framing a moment that hints at secrets buried in the house’s past.
In the eerie halls of Colonel Clay’s long-abandoned estate, the Ames family settles in, but young William Ames soon finds himself drawn into a haunting conversation with the ghost of the estate’s former owner. As the spirit of Colonel Clay tests their worth, William must convince the spectral colonel that the Ameses belong there—before the house decides otherwise.
