The Mardenburg Curse
8 pp · horror-suspense
Baron Von FelsenweirBaron Von MardenbergFrederick Von Felsenweir

In "The Mardenburg Curse," a centuries-old feud between two noble families erupts in 1955 when the 10th Baron Von Felsenweir, humiliated by a horse race loss to the current Baron Von Mardenberg, burns down the rival’s stable—unaware he’s just sealed his own fate. When a monstrous, unknown horse appears, its ghostly presence soon claims both the arrogant Baron Von F and the last living heir of Mardenburg in a fiery reckoning. The story, written by an unnamed author and illustrated by an unknown artist, unfolds with quiet dread, where vengeance wears the form of a shadowed steed and the past refuses to stay buried.

The Final Waltz
6 pp · horror-suspense

A young officer gives his sweetheart a cursed locket before riding off to battle, swearing it will bind them together forever—but when she weds another man while wearing it, something terrible crashes the celebration in "The Final Waltz." This chilling tale from Dark Mysteries #23 explores what happens when a supernatural charm demands what was promised, no matter the cost.

The Shadow over Manton Farm
5 pp · horror-suspense

Two criminals' violent quarrel over stolen money ends in murder at a remote Maine farmhouse—but when the killer returns years later to reclaim his hidden prize, he finds the farm far less abandoned than he expected. A psychic investigator, a determined insurance detective, and the vengeful ghost of a man with a clubfoot all converge on Manton Farm in this eerie tale of greed, guilt, and supernatural retribution.

Don't Box Me In
5.7 pp · horror-suspense

Dr. Martin Peale's archaeological triumph—discovering a mysterious 10,000-year-old stone carving in an Arizona cave—becomes an obsession that follows him home, as the artifact repeatedly escapes its confines despite his efforts to contain it. When the statue finally reaches his house, strange disturbances escalate, and the figure seems determined to elude his grasp no matter what lengths he takes to keep it. As the pursuit reaches a violent climax, Peale discovers that some treasures may exact a price far higher than fame and glory.
