Painted cover by Bob Powell. Stories and art by Carl Burgos and Joe Doolin. The first series from 1960s publisher Eerie presents gory tales of horror and the macabre, many "reanimated" from classic pre-Code horror comics. In an unusual tale, a coffin narrates its own life story. Centuries after it was summoned by Druids to oppose the Romans, the Dorset Monster returns. An escaped killer encounters a witch on the British moors, and it doesn't end well for either of them. A horrific version of the Red Riding Hood fairy tale, where the wolf is a werewolf and Red isn't just a helpless victim. Plus macabre beliefs from world folklore. And a rare painted cover by comics legend Bob Powell.
