Synopsis

A thief trying to rob a reclusive scientist finds him in a room with two doors. The scientist tells him if he leaves through the wrong door he will be trapped in a shadow world of strange creatures so the criminal decides to wait until someone else enters by one of the doors so that he knows which one leads back to the ordinary world.

Notes

Includes 10 pages of paid advertisements. The stories all bear the tag line, "A Tale of Mystery to Hold You Spellbound!" used by the cancelled Spellbound (Marvel, 1952 series), perhaps indicating the issue was built from pre-implosion inventory. Information supplied by Tom Lammers and the Atlas/Timely discussion list. On-sale date from 1958 Periodicals, Copyright Office, Library of Congress.
