Content & Features

• Tales of Mystery is a horror / suspense anthology series hosted by Boris Karloff. The stories are typically self‑contained, with twist or moral endings, often involving supernatural, mystery, or gothic elements. 

• Issue #5 includes several such stories. One noted feature is “The Tomb of Ti (Archaeology Number 7)”, drawn by Joe Certa, which is one of the “Keys of Knowledge” non‑fiction / educational style inside‑front or back covers.

• Like many issues in the series, this is more atmosphere than gore: there are ghosts, creepy settings, suspense, but not graphic horror.
