Beware #5
This anthology horror issue contains at least two stories: an untitled tale in which a woman named Pam experiences supernatural nightmares involving serpents and an unseen compulsion that forces her to walk the halls of her home, culminating in her relief that it was only a dream; and "Music of the Demons," in which pianist Stephen Tanjer's unfinished concerto is completed by mysterious demonic forces at his funeral, leading to tragedy when the critic Tim Harkness attempts to finish the work himself. The issue also includes a full-page advertisement for Meltabs, a dietary supplement claiming to aid weight loss without dieting or exercise.
