Halloween Hospital Horrors DRACULA "Invasion"

Disease Takes Many Forms...

...as this rather bizarre one-shot feature demonstrates!
Kool, eh?
Written by Estaban Maroto (who's better-known as an illustrator) and depicted by Jose Bea, this tale from New English Library's Dracula Magazine V1N5 (1972) originally appeared, in Spanish, in Buru Lan's Drácula V1N5 (1971)!
It was then published in America by Warren Publications in a trade paperback collecting the first six issues of Dracula Magazine, and as a standalone tale in full-color insert sections of the publisher's usually-all b/w magazines!
So older fans will probably remember it from several different places during the early 1970s!
Trivia: Despite being named "Dracula", the magazine had no Dracula content, except for a one-page humor strip on the back cover without captions or dialogue!
Ironically, it was the one strip not reprinted in the British or American editions...despite not needing translation!
