Night to Dawn 44

Night to Dawn 44 ushers in a Halloween theme-complete with the pumpkin on the front cover and the horror tales, poetry, and illustrations inside. For starters, Lee Clark Zumpe's The Quarantine Station will remind you of The Island of Dr. Moreau, except the mad scientist in Zumpe's tale experiments with raising the dead. A gutless wonder of a boss gets his comeuppance in Sharon Bidwell's Brain Dead. In Hal Kempka's Hunger Pangs, an old house is the vampire, feeding on people who dare try to live in it. The Halloween theme continues, with tales from Marge Simon, Ann Stolinsky, Rod Marsden, Matthew Wilson, and many others.
