"The Haunted House" -- In 1890, a recluse millionaire, with his dying breath, informs his servant that no one is to enter this house after his death. Anyone doing so will fall under the dying man's curse that will follow them to their grave. When the man dies, the city wants to take the property on back taxes, tear it down and sell the land, but ghosts haunting the property scare everyone off.....except Captain Marvel. "Gamblers of Death" -- Risking death, Billy investigates a phantom gambling ring which uses men's lives as chips in a fantastic game of murder for money.
