Synopsis
Breaking the fourth wall a Vampire addresses the reader, his intended victim. He tells how he first encountered his victim-to-be when he asked for help and was rebuffed. The vampire followed the reader, discovering where he lived and what comics he liked to buy. He spent considerable money printing up a custom copy of Adventures into Terror to place on the newsstand. The last panel of the story shows the vampire with claws extended and fangs bared - daring you to look over your shoulder.
