DC Comics · House of Secrets #114 · December 1973 · $0.20 · 100 pages
Grade: FN/VF 7.0
A reprint-era DC horror anthology hosted by Abel, running under the long shadow of the title's own history — House of Secrets had already birthed Swamp Thing in #92 before settling into this deep run of short horror and fantasy tales drawn from DC's rotating Bronze Age bullpen.
Specific story titles, page counts, and creator credits for House of Secrets #114 are not confirmed in our research. What is consistent across this stretch of the run: four to five short horror and fantasy stories per issue, hosted by Abel, mixing original material with reprints pulled from DC's deep pre-Code and Silver Age mystery inventory. The format is tight — twist endings, paranoid protagonists, and the kind of compressed storytelling that defined DC's mystery anthology line through the early seventies.
DC's mystery/horror anthology books of this period — House of Secrets, House of Mystery, Weird War Tales, Witching Hour — shared talent and occasionally stories. If you're building a complete run of House of Secrets, #114 is a non-key mid-run issue with no confirmed appearances that inflate prices or create gaps in availability.
House of Secrets ran from 1956 to 1978 — 154 issues total. The Bronze Age stretch from #92 onward is where collectors typically focus, anchored by that Swamp Thing landmark. Issues in the 110s are attainable, unglamorous, and exactly what a complete-run collector needs.
Condition FN/VF 7.0 — .
We use what the scientists are calling artificial intelligence to research and write our descriptions — it gives us more time to add books to our website and provide you with a wider array of inventory. We think Klaatu would approve. Details are verified but the robot does slip up. We're not infallible. Every book is graded by a human collector who has actually held it.
