The publisher Fiction House was infamous for what anti-comics crusader Dr. Fredric Wertham called "headlight comics," i.e. comics featuring the ample female bosom. The Pre-Code publisher used their buxom heroines to star in jungle comics, science fiction tales, and scary ghost stories! This series curates the sexiest and scariest of these poltergeist-infused good girl art comics in this pulse-pounding tome. Your hair will stand on end and at the same time your toes will curl. Featuring faithfully reprinted original art from these 1940s and 1950s by brilliant masters Matt Baker, Maurice Whitman, and more in this collection edited by comics historian and filmmaker Michael Price, with its lovingly restored comics.
