Voodoo #16

A week after Christmas, George Hayworth can't stop playing with the toy train he gave his sons, George Jr. and Toby—until one sleepless night brings uninvited visitors: tiny, horned creatures called Wudgies who claim they've come to take control of human affairs for humanity's own good. What begins as seemingly helpful service—offering money, comfort, and endless entertainment—quickly reveals itself as something far more sinister as the Wudgies strip away George and Amy's freedom, one choice at a time.

Bruce Kendall emerges from the underground caverns where he works to find the city above reduced to atomic ruin—everyone gone, everything destroyed. Desperately searching through the devastation for any sign of his wife Becky, he discovers she's survived the blast, but transformed into something no longer human. As Bruce struggles to reach the woman he once knew, the mutated survivors of the bombed city close in, forcing him into a desperate fight for survival in a world where the fog itself seems to hide horrors at every turn.

Young doctor Lynn Willis and his nurse Mary Hitchcock make a fateful decision to help a wounded stranger they find on a dark road—but their act of mercy sets in motion a chain of horrifying events in "Deadly Pickup." What begins as an emergency rescue at Willis's home takes a sinister turn when the true nature of their patient becomes terrifyingly clear, leaving the doctor to confront a nightmare far worse than the escaped lunatic everyone feared. Sometimes the greatest danger isn't the monster you're warned about, but the one hiding in plain sight.

In a chilling twist of fear and deception, John Trent drags his wife Sue and their friend Morris Slattery into a supposedly haunted house, hoping to frighten her with a prank. But when they arrive, they find Morris Slattery already dead — and the house’s true, murderous inhabitant, an old crone with an axe, is far more real than any ghost.
