Seance in the Asylum

“Séance in the Asylum is thrilling, intriguing and scary. It’s got its own unique identity which is uncommon in today’s age, and is shaping up to be an essential horror comic read for me. Clay McLeod Chapman’s comics debut succeeds with flying colors, and I cannot wait to see what else he does going forward.“—Comics Beat”Séance in the Asylum reads as if Edgar Allan Poe wrote a comic. It’s dark, moody, and a bit disturbed. There’s a strangeness that grips you while establishing a very dangerous proposition with its cliffhanger.“—AIPT Comics Praise for Clay McLeod Chapman:“With the trembling voice of Vincent Price and the sinister presence of Boris Karloff, Clay McLeod Chapman…uses the macabre to explore the humanity of his characters and reveal an almost spiritual side to the horrific.”—The New York Times
