Longbox Junk Halloween Horror - Kolchak Tales: Night Stalker Annual #1 (https://longboxjunk.blogspot.com/2019/10/longbox-junk-halloween-horror-kolchak.html)

Why is this on the DS discussion board? Well, check it out and you'll see...

I can't really say if I ever had any idea that it existed...

Your link was blocked, probably by the system here at my workplace. I assume it's referring to the DS crossover with Kolchak. I forget which came first, but there was a short story and a comic. I was disappointed to find that they were both about the same story. Surely they could have come up with two good ideas for a  meeting between Carl and Barnabas. They recreated the likenesses extremely well, but because of sloppy research, the sets did not look at all like their TV counterparts. How hard would it have been to google The Old House?

Yes, that's exactly what the link brings up. And what's nice for people like myself, is that they've reproduced the cover and the actual pages of the story. As you say, the likeness of Barnabas is extremely well done, Willie not so much, actually not at all. And the rooms in the Old House, well, also not so much - though what is presumably Josette's room comes close...

OK, I finally got to see it. Thank you for providing the link! It's nice to have a digital copy of it.
