The Poison of Evil
The dark shadow of evil falls with blood-freezing terror over an innocent golf course and sends the players to a torturous death.

The Geek
The horror of a blacksmith who turns into a monstrous circus freak through the devious planning of a strong-man and his girl.

Deadman's Ring
The roar of the crowd and the weird vapor-like figure pushes a champion boxer into "Death's Corner."

The Horror Dolls
Soul-searing fear invades the minds of those who are trapped by the supernatural where the unknown dwells.

The Tomb
The ghost of the cruel and bloodthirsty Nero waited for centuries to unleash his ancient curse for those caught in his web of hate.

The Sea Monsters
From out of the lower depths they surged, the slime-like things that caught an explorer in their vortex of horror.
