My introduction to this terrific ghost story series by Dell Comics was with issue #10, April-June 1965. Since it wasn't real easy to obtain back issues those days, I had to satisfy myself by finding the new issues as they came out. There was always a couple of pretty good stories in each issue and they are well worth a few minutes reading time.
Now, presented here for your Halloween Eve pleasure, is the first issue, with stories by the lauded John Stanley and art by one of my favorite underrated artists, Gerald McCann.
