In "The Violin of Death," treasure hunters Gary Summers and Bart Falco stumble upon a cursed island in the South Seas, where a glowing ruby from an ancient idol holds a deadly secret. As ghostly specter heads rise from the jungle, warning them to return what they’ve taken, the duo faces a fate worse than death—trapped in a nightmare they can’t escape. Bob Forgione’s moody art brings the island’s eerie dread to life, with every shadow hinting at something ancient and hungry.

The Violin of Death
7 pp · Horror-Suspense
Ulrico Antonio (violinist)Giovanni Monti

A struggling violinist named Ulrico Antonio seizes a mysterious opportunity when a blind beggar offers him the secret to obtaining a legendary Stradivarius—but the price of his ambition proves far darker than he bargained for. With his accompanist Giovanni Monti watching in horror, Antonio pursues an obsessive quest into the mountains that forces him to command forces beyond the living world itself. What begins as a musician's desperate dream becomes a descent into something altogether unholy.

Anthony ClaytonHerr HoffmanHerbert JenkinsEdith Clayton

A murder most perplexing strikes the ancestral Clayton home in Manchester, England, as a ghostly apparition prowls the foggy nights with dagger in hand—leaving Herbert Jenkins, a local coroner, to uncover the truth behind the eerie killings. When the "ghost" is seemingly captured, Jenkins discovers the case is far from closed, and the real murderer's identity shocks everyone involved. A masterful tale of hidden motives, mistaken assumptions, and a killer who walks among the living.
