...traveling to Hood City for a performance, Dr Neff discovers that the residents believe their town is cursed, and are leaving it in droves!
Neff promises he can break the curse during his magic show that night, and appears to do so!
But there are decidedly non-magical entities who want belief of the curse to continue, and are determined to discredit...or silence...Neff...
Written by Walter Gibson aka "Maxwell Grant", creator of the pulp/comic book character The Shadow, and illustrated by Bob Powell (who rendered art for both the pulp and comic incarnations of The Shadow), this never-reprinted tale from S&S's Ghost Breakers #1 (1948) presents Neff as a heroic "debunker", disproving and exposing those who would use illusion for evil!
