In the mid-1950s the Stanley Morse companies published over 30 comic titles, numbering close to 200 individual issues. Most of the popular and longer-running titles were horror/suspense, including SHOCK, MISTER MYSTERY and WEIRD MYSTERIES. Like many companies of the time, Stanley Morse gave up on comics in 1956, concentrating instead of a more successful line of Men's Magazines. In 1970 someone st Stanley decided to ressurrect the comic line by pulling out some of those 1950s stories and reprinting them as B&W titles. GHOUL TALES has new covers, but all the stories are some of those exicitng tales from the 1950s, brought forward 15-20 years (and now another 50 years on top of that!) for another shot at comic immortality. This is your chance to experience some comic history and enjoy great stories, at the more eocnomical B&W price. We are confident that even those stories unattributed to source are reprinted from 1950s comics, but with new titles it has surely been a challenge to sort out where they came from.
1 - Terror On TV!
2 - Destiny's Double Deal!
3 - The Chase!
4 - Hen Pecked!
5 - The Bogeyman
6 - Voice Of Doom
7 - Living Clay!
8 - The Night People
