Classic "hand-from-the-grave" cover. This mag is almost impossible to find in high grade, with most copies resembling the tattered corpses depicted within. The CGC census shows 19 Blue Label copies, only two of which are graded higher than 6.5.

"[Chamber of Chills #24] is the worst condition Harvey comic in my collection. Since I've been trying to upgrade it for nearly a decade, I have to suspect that there is a scarcity of high-grade copies of it, for reasons completely unknown to me. As far as I know, no 'warehouse find' copies of this particular issue have ever emerged." — George Suarez, Tales Too Terrible To Tell #8. NEC: 1993, p. 38.
