Do you dare enter… the HOUSE OF MYSTERY…

Don’t you find it fitting that comics’ master of the macabre, the late Bernie Wrightson, was born in the shadow of Halloween?

I do. Wrightson was born Oct. 27, 1948, and died in 2017. You can’t think of horror comics without him.

So here are 13 COVERS from — fittingly — the House of Mystery.

(Oh, and make sure you check out modern heir Kelley Jones’ tribute to one of his central artistic inspirations. Click here.)
