Great art as always in these 1950s anthologies – the best for me was the unknown penciller on The Little People. The Dead Awaken was the most original story I’ve read in a while. I really like the idea that an alternate Alan (not a ghost) continues to live after his death. (not a spoiler as you find this out at the beginning) That could easily be expanded into a novel.
The Little People was fun and there’s a blonde in a red dress in Waxworks! A great value edition.
