“Payment in Full”

In "Payment in Full," a 1952 classic from Ziff-Davis, a stranded couple encounters a spectral figure in a New Orleans mansion who begs them to deliver proof of his murder to the police—only for the man to see a chance to profit from the ghost's plea. Written by Robert Bernstein and illustrated by Ray Willner, with lettering by Ben Oda, this eerie tale blends Southern Gothic atmosphere with a morally slippery twist. The cover, by Norman Saunders, captures the story’s haunting mood with striking detail.
