The third volume of Fantagraphics monumental collection of Guido Crepaxs comics collects the Baba Yaga storyline, which recasts the witch of folklore (it was adapted for the screen in 1973 starring Carroll Baker as the middle-aged, lesbian villainess). Under Baba Yagas influence, a doll, Annette, comes to life; Valentina and her lover, Philip, are forced to act out the fairy tale Bluebeard; and Philip must fight the witch in her lair. Evil Spells also features the famed Italian cartoonists sinuous adaptations of several literary masterpieces: Robert Louis Stevensons Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Henry Jamess The Turn of the Screw, and a giallo genre take on Edgar Allan Poe.
