In efforts to expand its presence on the newsstands, Eerie Publications began experimenting with more titles -- and with equally, if not more lurid covers. With a July 1968 cover date, TALES FROM THE CRYPT appeared on the racks. With a title like this, it's no small stretch to understand why it disappeared just as quickly!
