Horror We? How's Bayou?

Story  on  Interior Page(s)
Subject Matter
Genres: horror
Feature(s): The Witch's Cauldron!
Character(s): The Old Witch (host); Dr. Max Forman (death); unnamed woman (death, in flashback); Anthony Jackson (salesman, death, in flashback); Everett (villain); Sidney (villain, Everett's brother)
Synopsis: Sidney and Everett live in a shack by a swamp. Every so often, Sidney switches a nearby road sign to lure people into the swamp, where dimwitted Everett amuses himself with dismembering the unfortunate drivers. Finally, though, the swamp gives up its dead. All the victims, with mismatched parts, climb from the swamp and give Sidney a taste of the same treatment they received. Everett is puzzled by the fact that his still-living brother's limbs now protrude from odd parts of his torso.

The Inferiors

Synopsis: An expedition to find inhabited worlds finds nothing but destruction on planet after planet. The populations of all these worlds were of the same space-faring race, but the populations are now extinct, and the explorers don't know why. Then, they find an old recording that explains that the aliens had achieved their evolutionary peak and were now slowly devolving into violent beasts. Rather than allow that to happen, most of them chose death. However, a small group wanted to live, so they were left on a distant planet: Earth. There, they devolved into the "violent beasts". Us.
