When I was a kid in the 1970s I read a lot of anthology-style horror comics.
Here are some of the ones I remember:
Ghosts
The Witching Hour
Tomb Of Darkness
House Of Mystery
Anybody else read these kind of comics when you were a kid? If so, from which decade?

I didnt have access to them as a kid except Eerie or Creepy (I remember a story about a guy who hated snakes and goes to Vietnam and is thrown into a pit of snakes and dies there--thus his corpse is telling the story about why he hates snakes).
I did see a little of EC comics but not until recently was I able to check some of them out.
I like the reprints of Marvel monster stories from the 70s with titles like Where Monsters Dwell or Creatures on the Loose.

That Vietnam story sounds interesting. It was a random issue of Creepy or Eerie I got once--cant remember the cover. The contents were black and white. I cant remember any other stories in the issue but that one! |

I remember buying horror comics as a kid, but I honestly don't remember any brand.

I only discovered House of Mystery in the early 80's when it was running the "I, Vampire" series. Naturally, it got cancelled not long afterwards.  |
