Dark Horse has cooked up a horror anthology for kids, House of Fear (it’s rated 8+), and they are giving us a sampling of images so we can see just how scary it is. Here’s the 411:

It’s kids vs. monsters in this collection of scary comics for young readers!

 
Welcome to the House of Fear, your new home for scary comics! Boyle, the creepy caretaker, presents five frightening tales of startling suspense and thrilling adventure. These chilling comics will engross even the bravest of young readers–and empower them with themes of conquering fear and saving the day.


It’s Scooby-Doo meets Tales from the Crypt! Devour these terrifying tales if you dare! 

The comic is out on May 1. Enjoy!
