Um..is this a misapplied cover--or did they just slap a horror cover on a crime comic and sell it this way? The latter wouldn't surprise me...

What a great cover !
   By David Miles
Yes indeed, a great cover, worthy of any horror/supernatural comic. However, the stories inside are all crime related. Some tales have some fine art work but not all. However, well worth a look, especially the first tale, 'Horror Castle'.

Love this cover art on this . At first glance , you would swear that you were buying a horror comic . Pretty sure that the contradictory image caused a bit of confusion on the newstands then ( unless buyers bothered to flip thru first as many readers did back then and now) Maybe the publisher was hedging their bets while deciding which way to go during that tumultuous era in comic book publishing ( i.e the previous " Horrors Of WAR" #11 which was at least consistent with the contents !) Maybe they could have kept this rolling thru: HORRORS OF- western, sports, romance or funny animal (LOL)genres if need be until they got it right , who knows ?. Now decades later we can take an arm chair critical view of such a "flaw" in formatting . Hey it still is a superb spooky cover and I for one do not care if it were the cover of knitting journal as long as it got published.

It for sure has a pretty cool cover , bet it screwed with comic fans head when they got that home and started reading "Terror Castle" looking for some scary stuff.
