This is the second issue of a volume of uncredited reprints from the Ajax Farrell line of pre-code horror comics. Besides Carl Burgos' original work on the CREEPY rip-off of "Loathsome Lore", he also added some touch-ups and flourishes to the story, "Night of Terror". Otherwise, most of the work is done by the Jerry Iger shop of production line comics. It would be a few more issues before the grisly covers would begin, but in the meantime, WEIRD serves up a plate of. . . well, weird horror comic stories.
