Synopsis for "Whispering Shadows!"
Plot summary from the Conan wiki
Notes
- Shooter is consulting editor.
- "Whispering Shadows" is adapted from the story Castle of Terror by L. Sprague de Camp and Lin Carter. The name was changed because at that time, Comics Code-approved magazines could not use the word "terror" in their title.[1]
