Mysteries of Unexplored Worlds #6 (1957)

In "Night Call," a doctor answers a mysterious midnight summons, only to become disoriented in a thick, endless fog. Guided to an isolated log cabin, he tends to a sick man in a time that feels strangely out of step. When he finally returns to the present, he realizes he’s traveled more than a century into the past—though how or why remains a haunting mystery.

In "The Strange Fate of Captain Fenton," a merciless sea captain’s cruelty catches up with him when a storm sinks his ship and strands him on an island where the natives revere him as divine. Written by an unknown hand and illustrated by an unknown artist, the story follows Fenton’s descent from tyrant to hunted man as the very totem he cast into the sea returns—carrying the weight of his past sins.

When engineer Steve Walker attempts to build a bridge across the Nephtal River at a site deemed sacred by local villagers, he dismisses their warnings about the god Kubar—only to face a series of inexplicable disasters that defy engineering logic. As his crew refuses to work and machinery fails in bizarre, synchronized ways, Walker is left questioning whether the ancient myth of Kubar is more than superstition. The story ends with Walker confronting a vision of the long-lost bridge and a figure whose presence defies all reason.

In "Look Deep Into My Eyes," a struggling hypnotist discovers he’s the last heir of a long-dead line of sorcerers, their malevolent spirits eager to pass their power to him. Just as the ritual begins, a mysterious woman intervenes—slapping him hard, shattering the trance, and leaving him stunned.

In a tense, atmospheric tale from *Mysteries of Unexplored Worlds* #6, a young man named Arthur pleads with his father to hide him from the police, confessing to a series of thefts that have haunted his life. As the authorities close in, the father confronts Arthur’s repeated failures and the weight of his own role in shaping his son’s choices, leading to a moment of desperate reckoning. The story unfolds in a single, claustrophobic night, where guilt, fear, and a hidden secret threaten to consume them both.
