Here's a fun, and oddly to the point, 5-page Farrell tale from the Sept. - October 1954 issue of Voodoo #17 (with art that looks like some of it was done by Iger Shop, while the other half by someone with a completely different style), concerning ancient, massacred spirits returning for a successfully swift, boggy vengeance. Hey, where'd that wacky witch go?!!

"Well teach them to obey the Crown!" is no way for the story to gain sympathy for Tony, but from then on, he has mine. I wish he and Pamela had come out all right.
If he'd at least tried to carry on his ancestor's work it'd be a little different, of course (although just as wrong when it comes to Pamela).
What a weird story! As you mention, it looks like the art changes halfway through, and not only that, it looks like there's some cut and paste going on.
Page 4, panel 1, what is happening? Is that a cloak? A blanket? Where's the tree from the last panel? Panel 4 and 5 look like something has been erased or altered. Somebody messed up on a deadline, it seems! Then on the next page, the balloon lettering on the stone makes me think it's another lifted panel? We'll never know but it gives the entire tale this weird dream like quality.
I love the sudden Casper over the tomb, how the ending just snatches the woman and completely forgets about the man (frankly neither of them are responsible!) and the great ending panel. The whole thing is wild!
And I love it!
It's yet but another tale where the innocents get killed, horribly, again!
