Stories

Notes: After a great 'welcome to horror' splash, we learn that Dr. Randall Hart, one of the great bio-chemists of our time, has invented a serum that will bring mankind everlasting life. Instead, his assistant Dr. Parker kills him and injects himself before destroying the serum. He hopes to rule the world by becoming immortal, but living to the end of time may be more than he wished for...
Notes: Johnny "Lucky Ring" Greco is on the run from the police, when his car crashes against a tree. He finds his way to a cabin in the woods... to find his lucky ring on display in a strange museum.
Notes: A young atomic shield engeneer has built a shelter to hide himself and his fiancee from the monster hydrogen-atom bombs which will wipe out every vestige of the human race at any moment. But she doesn't want to join him in his dungeon. While they argue alongside the atomic plant where he works, a huge explosion pulls them apart and he survives alone in his shelter. When he gets out, his girlfriend hasn't changed a bit... but the world has.
Notes: A criminal on the run hides in a department store, where there is a party going on after hours. He is invited to stay... and he is enough of a dummy to do it.
Notes: Kupert Boggs III is a tycoon who didn't care who he stepped on to reached the top. Bored with his success, he decided to conquer outer space. But even when he offers 2 million for whoever builds him a rocketship that can reach Saturn, nothing works. Until a strange little man takes him there... on a one way trip.
