Fantastic Fears #8
In "Terror under Glass," a 1954 horror tale from Fantastic Fears #8, David’s haunting nightmare of suffocation in an hourglass leads him to a psychiatrist, where repressed memories surface—memories of wartime collaboration and a tragic building shaped like an hourglass. Written by Ruth Roche and illustrated by Robert Webb, this chilling story unfolds as David is sent to inspect a grain elevator in Minnesota, only to face a fate mirroring his past. The cover, by Bob Webb, captures the dread of confinement and unseen danger.
