About this listen

Free PDF comic book download available with this audiobook!

The telling of horror stories must date back to the dawn of civilization, so comic books are just a very recent medium for this genre. It can be debated which was the first true horror comic as we know them today. But there are a few issues and titles that are milestones, and we've decided to bring them back to life for your enjoyment.

Our first compilation showcases six great vintage horror stories from some of the best comics we could find, so sit back relax and indulge in some classic horror tales from the golden age of comic books.

In this issue:

  • "Horror's Little Acre": Honeymooners discover a killer's hideout. Luckily for them, the ground they walk on is cursed with the memory of an old unavenged murder. Nature itself turns upon the killer.
  • "Murder Mansion": A crooked gangster couple hides in an abandoned mansion and conjures up the demon Teneshad to do their bidding. But there's a price to pay. Teneshad grows ever larger and takes them prisoner.
  • "Corpse Convention": On Friday the 13th, a young couple checks into a strange hotel and is ushered into room 1313 on the 13th floor. They make the acquaintance of an annual convention of people who committed suicide in this room some years ago.
  • "Bride of Death": Joseph needs a fresh corpse for his experiments, which is provided when Delores Martiz dies on her wedding day. He brings her back from the dead, but cannot win her for himself.
  • "Mark of Evil": A ruthless reporter kills for a camera which is able to show future events. When the gadget shows his own doom, he flees—but is caught by the police.
  • "The Three Monkeys": Bradley goes to India in search of the Three Monkeys Cult. When he finds its sacred chamber, he also finds diamonds. Because of his greed he is struck blind, so that he never more will see evil.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

I listened to this on a late night drive through the woods and honestly felt like I was sitting around an old radio set back in the day. The stories are short and spooky with just the right amount of eerie tension. The full cast voices made it feel alive and a little chilling too. Some parts felt cheesy but in a fun old school way. It reminded me of when my cousins and I used to try scaring each other with flashlight stories at sleepovers.

I love a good horror collection, and this one did not disappoint. Each story kept me hooked with eerie twists and unsettling moments. Some were downright chilling, while others made me think long after I finished reading. It’s the perfect book for anyone who enjoys short, suspenseful tales that pull you into the darkness. I found myself wanting to read just one more before bed—probably not the best idea! Definitely worth picking up if you love horror.

This was a fantastic narration! I love the voice of the narrator, it was spot on for all these stories. I haven't read a comic book in a long time but this was great, the pdf comes with it so you can follow along and see the pictures. Very unique experience. All 6 of these stories were very entertaining. My favorite was the Horror's little acre and Bride of death. Get this for your comic loving person! They will love it! The narrator's voice was perfect for this. His voice was spot on for all the stories. A truly entertaining listen!
