Baffling Mysteries #21
In "The Horror of Hillory Hill," a chilling tale from Baffling Mysteries #21 (1954), the cursed legacy of Martin Londos—a once-famous carnival owner known for his cruelty to his animal freaks—comes back to haunt him in the most grotesque way. With art by Sy Grudko, this eerie story unfolds in the shadowy world of sideshow secrets and unnatural transformations, where the line between man and monster blurs. The cover, by Lou Cameron, captures the unsettling mood of a tale where the freaks are no longer just on display.
