Secrets of Haunted House was a horror -suspense comics anthology series published by American company DC Comics from 1975 to 1978 and 1979 to 1982.
Publication history
The series began in April–May 1975. [1] [2] Like its predecessor Secrets of Sinister House , Secrets of Haunted House was originally "hosted" by Cain, Abel , Eve , and Destiny who had moved over from Weird Mystery Tales . By issue #10 (Feb.–March 1978), Destiny was the only one of these who remained a regular. In issue #40 (Sept. 1981), Abel returned with no further mention of Destiny.
A Secrets of Haunted House Special was published in 1978 as part of the DC Special Series umbrella title . [3] Secrets of Haunted House was a temporary victim of the so-called " DC Implosion ". With issue #14 (Oct.–Nov. 1978), it was cancelled but revived a year later with issue #15 (Aug. 1979). The title continued until issue #46 (March 1982). [1]
The Mister E character was introduced in issue #31 (Dec. 1980) by writer Bob Rozakis and artist Dan Spiegle [4] [5] and became a recurring character for the next ten issues. The final Mister E story appeared in issue #41 (Oct. 1981). [6]
The series' letter column was titled "The Haunted Mailbox".
