About the Series:

The Unexpected was one of DC’s longest-running and most beloved Bronze Age horror anthology series, featuring chilling short stories of suspense, supernatural events, and macabre twists. Alongside titles like House of Mystery, Ghosts, and The Witching Hour, this series showcased the eerie, atmospheric storytelling that defined DC’s 1970s–1980s horror line.

Each issue combined standalone horror tales with striking cover art and moral or supernatural themes — a reflection of the post-Comics Code “mystery and terror” boom that shaped DC’s horror legacy.
