While the writer is unknown, the artist of this tale from Ace's Baffling Mysteries #17 (1953) is Lou Cameron, who was both a comic/pulp illustrator and a paperback novelist with over 300 books to his credit.
Surprisingly, this story had never been reprinted before it's re-appearance in the new IDW anthology Haunted Horror!
