Inspired by true events, this eerie prison story combines the supernatural with the suspenseful in a wicked tale of revenge from beyond the grave inside a prison’s walls. Writer Aaron Douglas said, “This is a story born out of an experience I had as a young boy with one of my uncles and my dad. I snuck to a spot in the house to listen to my uncle relate his tale to my dad. It confused and terrified me at the time, and to this day I still have a very creepy feeling inside when I tell it to people. I think it is a fascinating story and whenever I tell it, people are enthralled and I want to share it with a wider audience. I hope this can achieve that.”

While the ghost story puts shivers down my spine, the art, masterfully created by Cliff Richards, does not. Richards does a stellar job rendering the world that the story occupies, but the feeling of dread and suspense created by Douglas’ story is not echoed in the panels themselves, which are often bland and nondescript. I found myself rereading a page or series of panels to get a better understanding of the story. This is one of those cases where a talented writer and an equally talented artist’s visions don’t gel well together.
