In this nightmare-packed issue, a medieval mandrake wreaks havoc, the devil pops in for a cup of tea with the local vicar, and there is the opening part of our first serialisation - a 19th century tale reminiscent of Hammer House. And as if we’re not spoiling you enough we round things off by talking to leading speculative fiction writer Piers Anthony.
