Circle of Death

If you haven't heard, Heritage Auctions has a handful of original, full-story Robert Webb / Iger Shop precode horror art becoming available in the next few weeks, (CLICK HERE for more info!) --and today's post is one of them. Annnnd after re-reading the ultra-lurid "Circle of Death" tale from the November 1953 issue of Mysteries Weird and Strange #4 a couple of things occurred to me: 1.) I wish I had added this to my Haunted Love mini series a few years back-- wah! and 2.) it's left me puzzled to why I've never posted it here at THOIA! GAG! Such a wonderfully mean spirited, gruesomely grim, scuzzy story-- why, I didn't even bother to clean up the scans as extensively as I usually do, just cuz! Hahahaha, enjoy?

Get Out of My Graveyard! / Trumpet of Doom

Two more requests this week, and first up one for Ronnie from the June 1953 issue of Spellbound #15. Someone at the Atlas Tales site thinks this is possibly the work of [Bill Everett?] [No attribution there now -- Nequam] I don't know, does this look like Everett to anyone else? It sure doesn't to me but I've been wrong before. And our second bonkers tale today is for Adam Sorensen and comes from the March - April 1954 issue of Haunted Thrills #14.

Hope everyone is having a great July so far!

NEXT: Basil!
