Weird #2

In "Demon Goddess," Englishman Charles Delavan travels to India and uncovers a chilling secret when he learns his friend is a cultist devoted to the dark deity Kali. As he tries to escape the growing dread, he’s ensnared by a sinister ritual and forced to drink a forbidden potion—leaving him bound to a fate far darker than death.

In "The Living Dead," John Blane, a man obsessed with defying death at the age of seventy, takes a deadly gamble when he steals a serum promising eternal life—killing the scientist who refuses to give it up. Though sentenced to execution, Blane survives the electric chair, only to escape and commit a violent bank robbery. After a brutal car crash leaves him permanently maimed, he spends the rest of his existence trapped in a hospital bed, a living testament to his cursed immortality.

In "Witch or Widow?", a reclusive woman named Jessica lives alone in a mansion shaped like a shoe, a relic of her late husband Philip Wuxton’s eccentric love. After years of mourning, she marries each of her husband’s funeral directors in rapid succession—each dying soon after—leaving the townsfolk whispering about curses and secrets. When her son Jerry Mason begins to uncover the truth behind the pattern, he finds himself face to face with a mystery that blurs the line between grief and something far darker.
