A notorious Pre-Code Horror title, there’s a small group of Farrell’s Pre-Code Horror classic Haunted Thills up for auction in the 2022 July 31-August 1 Sunday & Monday Comic Books Select Auction #122231 at Heritage Auctions. Haunted Thrills and Voodoo were the most successful of Farrell’s horror line, but while Voodoo transformed into the jungle adventure Vooda, when the Comics Code approached, there was no saving Haunted Thrills. Robert Farrell had gotten his start working for Victor Fox, and like Fox, often worked with Iger Studio. The company put out a wide range of genres from romance to war comics, but might be best remembered for their Pre-Code Horror line and their underappreciated mid-1950s superhero line which included former Fox Feature Syndicate titles like The Flame, Samson and Phantom Lady. Farrell Publications published some 321 issues of 62 titles from 1951-1958, which is to say that most Farrell series were short lived.
