Friday the 13th Frights HAND OF FATE "The Night of Friday 13"

For centuries, this date was 24 hours of sheer terror...

...amazingly, there are relatively few comic stories about it, and most of them are humor tales!
But not this one...

This bit of pre-Comics Code fun is from Hand of Fate #22 (1954), illustrated by Lou Cameron, who did over 200 stories and covers in every conceivable genre during his time in the comic book business!
His best-known work is a number of genre tales for Classics Illustrated including War of the Worlds, Time Machine, and Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde!
He gave up illustrating and became a Western novel and non-fiction writer.

BAFFLING MYSTERIES "Kill, My Minions of Death!"

The idea of hands-on killing is not a new one...

...but the idea of hands-on using someone else's hands, certainly is!

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!
