An artist for "Beware" comics feels that he's run out of monster ideas, until he meets his son's strange new playmate, in a story that name-drops several other Youthful Mag horror artists. In postwar Germany, American agents investigate a killer stalking a small town, and learn the ancient castle nearby hides a very modern horror. The Body Snatcher; My Daddy Should Have Listened; The Death Waltz; The Pied Piper of Ziess-Baden; Don't Dance With Me When I'm Dead.
