Whitehead nos apresenta um jovem expulso de casa que tenta se redimir com os pais em "A porta", mas algo acontece quando ele tenta virar a chave para entrar no apartamento; Em "O poço", Julian Kilman nos faz enlouquecer junto com Jeremiah Hubbard, que precisa esconder um crime que acabou de cometer; Em "Königstein", Bill Morris tenta salvar sua amada Maria das mãos de um desconhecido, aos pés do Cárpatos, na Transilvânia! Por fim, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, o criador de Sherlock Holmes, nos apresenta uma terrível cena de tortura em "O funil de couro"!
