A Tale from the Crypt; Class Trip 1997

"A Tale from the Crypt; Class Trip" is a 1997 illustration by Jack Davis, known for his work in the horror and comic genres. The image depicts a group of children on a field trip to a "Comfy Coffin Co.", where a ghoulish figure with exposed bones and a toothy grin stands beside a coffin. The scene highlights Davis' signature style of grotesque humor and dark fantasy, popularized through his collaborations with EC Comics. The piece captures a macabre sense of fun, with the children's wide-eyed reactions to the horrifying display adding to the humorous and slightly unsettling tone.
