Ye Haunted
Lake was another weird but short-lived strip from SHIVER section.
The lake was a dangerous body of water and a little girl was the only one who
knew that disturbing it meant asking for trouble. In the first panel of
each episode we see some unsuspecting stranger who is about to do something on
the lake. The girl tries to warn him/her/them about the danger but is always
brushed aside and the stranger faces the consequences. Interestingly, the lake
was so full of tricks and surprises that you could never know what to expect…
Ye Haunted
Lake ran in SHIVER AND SHAKE issues 1 – 26 and missed Nos. 8, 14,
22, 24, 25. It was illustrated by the same artist who drew the later episodes
of the Hand.
Ye Haunted
Lake was on the last inside page of the first issue of SHIVER AND
SHAKE. In a few days’ time I’ll take a look at Creepy Creations pin-ups on the
back page of the paper.
It reminds me of the Haunted Wood by Sid B in Knockout..
ReplyDeleteDitto - the Haunted Lake and the Haunted Wood are amongst my favourite of all the Fleetway "characters". Totally unpredictable and at times oddly unsettling!
