Ghosts and Ghouls #3

Gredown's Ghosts and Ghouls #3 was published c.October 1977:

The cover is by Salvador Faba. This image was previously published on the cover of European comics such as Chock #3, 1975:


And Shokki #7, 1975:


It was also on the cover of a horror pulp novel, Gespenster-Krimi #40:


The story contents:

The Rotting Ghouls, originally published in Weird v7#4 
Deadman's Dream, originally published in Weird  v8#2, April 1974 
The Hungry Ghoul, originally published in Tales of Voodoo v3#4, July 1970 
The Work of Genius, originally published in Ghostly Tales #83, December 1970 
Satan's Demon, published in Terror Tales v9#1, January 1978 
The Supernatural, originally published in Weird v8#3, June 1974 
Ghoul without Pockets, originally published in Horror Tales v2#2, March 1970 

There are two Eerie stories titled Satan's Demon. The one in this issue is signed Felix Saborido. This is the story published in Terror Tales Vol. 9 #1, according to my set of digital scans. I am certain there is an earlier Eerie printing of this story but I have yet to identify it. 

Gredown recycled some of these stories: The Rotting Ghouls is in The Fanged Monster; Deadman's Dream is in Ghost Dancers and Shuddering Fear; and The Supernatural is in Fate of Death.
