Don't go in the attic! A secret is stored in the attic of an old home. And a 12 year old is both intrigued and terrified of what he might find if he goes upstairs.
Inspired by Tales From the Crypt, Twilight Zone, and Creep Show, Zenescope goes back to its roots of horror as the publisher known for re-inventing classics delves into an entirely new bag of tricks.
In many ways, Death's target this week doubles asa sly parallel to her own personality. Both mask who they really are and what they're truly capable of, so it makes sense Death broke out the supernatural punishment for this person. Of the series, this is the firstperson who thought they could play in Death's world and eventually found out they just didn't like what they found there. Between the excellently-written main horror story and Death's continued development, this is by far the best issue of Grimm Tales of Terror yet. Given how great the series has been so far, it's more than likely they'll be topping issue #5 next month. Read Full Review
The preamble to this story says that Zenescope goes back to its roots and there is maybe more to that than what they meant to say. When left unimpeded by its generally weaker shared universe, the story here gets a chance to shine, or more accurately to scare. While there are fans of the superhero-like universe of Grimm Fairy Tales, it is really worth remembering that it did not start out that way, and that those where the most groundbreaking stories in the original series lie. This issue does not forget those lessons and thrives because of it. Read Full Review

In a comic series that provides a different story every month with different plot and characters, Grimm Tales of Terror sounds like a fun and challenging project for the creating team. Also to be suspenseful and eerie must make it even more challenging. I like this issue and if its sitting next to you know that it is a whole story in one issue. It doesnt involve a back issue commitment unless you like the style and get hooked. Read, enjoy, eye the shadows suspiciously and dont read before bed time. Grimm Tales of Terror #5 gets four out of five stars. Read Full Review
