    Cover by Johnny Craig. Stories by Al Feldstein and Johnny Craig. Art by Al Feldstein, John Alton, Fred Peters and Johnny Craig. E.C.'s Pre-Trend crime title continues its transformation into a New Trend horror title, with less "crime" and more carnage. A man with catalepsy is mistaken for dead and sent to be cremated, unless his wife can find him in time. A murderous Egyptologist tries to kill a rival by sealing him in a tomb, but telltale facial scratches give him away. A reporter receives a foot transplant from a mad doctor, but the feet seek revenge for the murder of their previous owner, and take the reporter with them. Plus the second appearance of The Crypt Keeper. The Corpse in the Crematorium; Trapped in the Tomb; A Bottle of Murder; The Graveyard Feet; Voodoo Vendetta; The Spectre in the Castle. Final issue under this title; series continues as Crypt of Terror (1950) #17. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
