Contains 3 stories
The Gruesome Demon of Terror
6 pp · detective-mystery; war

A history teacher turned soldier, Lieutenant Palmer, finds himself attached to an intelligence unit during the Korean War, tasked with investigating rumors of a mystery temple hidden on enemy-held Konji Mountain. When his unit launches an assault to seize the territory, Palmer joins the frontline forces, determined to uncover the truth behind the locals' whispered warnings of a "devil god" guarding the ancient shrine. What waits in that temple—and whether Palmer will survive what he discovers there—becomes far stranger than any wartime intelligence briefing could have prepared him for.

Tri-State Terror
10 pp · crime
Wilbur Underhill

Wilbur Underhill terrorizes three states with his gang, starting as a small-time moonshine hustler in Oklahoma before graduating to armed robbery and murder across Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma. Drawing on true crime, this 1963 tale follows Underhill's bloody rise through bootlegging, bank heists, and violence—each crime pushing him deeper into a corner as law enforcement closes in. Written as a hard-hitting crime chronicle, "Tri-State Terror" charts the criminal's downfall across a landscape of guns, greed, and increasingly desperate flight.
