Description
"Presented below are true experiences drawn from Dr. Shade’s collection of supernatural events. Let us explore the unknown with him, the better to learn of unexplained forces that exist about us…"
Thus began the introduction for a collection of mysterious tales presented by Doctor Shade, an ethereal nom de plume who gathered macabre stories that were featured in the pre-Code Canadian horror comic book series "Journey into Fear." Readers were invited to share their accounts of ghostly events, yet this premise only lasted until the fourth, bi-monthly issue; from then on, Ghost Clinic became a single-story column, beginning with “Bury Me Deep.” The macabre tales were still presented by Doctor Shade, yet they were told through a decidedly more fictional lens, and were no longer exclusive to ghosts; vampires, werewolves, and other horrors joined in the fray.
Presented herein are the surviving Ghost Clinic stories, which were originally published between 1951-54; as with the illustrated tales from the pages of "Journey into Fear," these stories are weird, strange, and unbelievable!
