We polled some of the best and brightest writers, artists and editors from the House of Ideas to find out what moments from Marvel Comics history sent them crying for their mommies. Here’s what they came up with…

STRANGE TALES |
Bob Gale (writer of “Back to the Future” and upcoming AMAZING SPIDER-MAN)
“Okay, I’m really dating myself here, but when I was ten or eleven years old, I read STRANGE TALES #100. I didn’t have a very big comics budget back then, so I read it in the drug store. The cover story was “The Man In The Crazy Maze” by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, about a guy who found himself stuck in a spook house from which the only exit was literally hell. I can’t say it exactly scared the crap out of me, but being a normal 5th grader who loved going into spook houses, I thought it was pretty creepy! And due to my overactive imagination, I think that NOT owning the comic always made it scarier in retrospect.”

AMAZING |
Bill Rosemann, (Marvel editor):
“So there I am, about eight years old, and I’m flipping through an issue of MARVEL TALES, which at the time was running reprints of AMAZING SPIDER-MAN. Anyway, this one issue reprinted AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #138, featuring the first appearance of Mindworm. I don’t know if it was his giant head, his bugged-out eyes, his bizarre mouth, his thinning but still long hair, his overly-muscled but pale body, his funky brown shorts or his hippy sandals…BUT HE SERIOUSLY FREAKED ME OUT!”

Step away from that pumpkin! While we’re more than happy to get into the swing of Halloween, we refuse to do a roundup of the trite and not-so-true haunted hotels around the world. Nonetheless, in our travels we’ve happened upon a number of places that are genuinely creepy, from a dive site among WWII wrecks in Micronesia to a tour through the eerie, abandoned town near Chernobyl in the Ukraine.
You’d be wrong to dismiss these destinations as merely spooky stop-offs, too. Many have true historical significance (the Paris Catacombs and its links to the French Revolution), while others are destinations of great beauty (the Easter Islands in the Pacific Ocean). So in the spirit (sorry) of the season, here are 13 (sorry again) of the world’s weirdest destinations. Sensitive souls should read on with caution.
