Number 1588: The bride has crabs!

Here are a couple of terror tales from Harvey Comics’ golden age of horror, the early '50s. Both of these particular stories are tied together by having creepy crustaceans, crabs, as monsters.

First up, from Chamber of Chills #7 (1952), “The Crawling Death!” is credited to Abe Simon, pencils, and Don Perlin, inks, in the Grand Comics Database. Secondly, “The Bride of the Crab” is from Chamber of Chills #12 (1952), and is not a story of Pappy’s honeymoon with Mrs. Pappy, although I can be mighty crabby. The story is drawn by Moe Marcus. Karswell posted it back in 2008 in The Horrors Of It All, and you can go there to check it out by tapping the link with your claw.
