This Magazine is Haunted # 3
Easily one of the rarest Pre-Code horror comic books.

My speculation is that there was some sort of production flaw that led to most surviving copies becoming coverless.
Almost all copies that retain their cover are either taped or have spine splits. I've only seen a few copies that were not cover-less.

Here are a couple mentions regarding TMiH3 HERE
and HERE

Although this copy has it's flaws, it hardly ever is offered for sale in complete condition.

This copy is a VG minus, but presents much nicer.

My absurdly high asking price is $500. Feel free to PM me with offers.

Thanks Dr. Balls (apparently I've always wanted to say that judging from the smile on my face lol )

I've had a couple PM's regarding the apparent stains on the top right and bottom left, so let me address that here.

The stains look worse in the pics. I do believe they are residue from old H2o, however there is no rippling only a foxing type residue.

This came from an original owner collection that had the whole run, so I'm certain there is no restoration.

I gave it a VGminus due to the stains. At frist glance it looks like a FINE.

Book is tough as nails to find in any grade. I've only seen three for sale in the last few years and only one of those had its cover.

It's a Gerber 12...you have to literally go back in time to obtain a copy and once you get back from the Past it doesn't make the trip.
