Original Air Date: June 10, 1989
This episode was based on the story “…And All Through The House..” seen in issue #35 of “The Vault of Horror”. The comic was written and illustrated by Johnny Craig.
Who plays the “naughty” adulteress better? Mary Ellen Trainor or Joan Collins? Joan Collins had the original role in the 1972 Tales From The Crypt Movie. Really, the HBO version makes more sense. In the comic and movie you wonder why she didn’t call the police and blame the death of her husband on the psychotic Santa. Perfect opportunity right?
These comics are hard to get a hold of, but you’ll find issue 35 in Volume 5 of the Vault of Horror EC Horror Comic archive.
Fans of the old EC Horror Comics should check out the modern day “Grave Tales“, published by Cemetery Dance Publications. Writers and artists might want to check out their submission guidelines.
