“Follow the Piper to Your Grave!”

"Follow the Piper to Your Grave!" kicks off with a haunting tale of amnesia and betrayal, as a nameless man, rescued by the grotesque witch Meg Cooper, finds himself entangled in a deadly game of trust and greed. Written by Jack Oleck and brought to life with moody, expressive art by Mike Sekowsky—inked by Tom Palmer and lettered by John Costanza—this 1974 oddity from Weird Mystery Tales #10 features a chilling twist on the folkloric piper myth. The cover, a striking, full-color portrait by Nick Cardy, captures the eerie allure of Meg Cooper, setting the tone for a story that lingers long after the final page.
