Last week, you saw a classic Gothic tale involving a beautiful woman in a haunted mansion...
...now see how DC did it only a couple of years earlier, during the Silver Age!
To be concluded...
During the Silver Age, DC considered "magic" to basically be as-yet unexplained (or, in this case, deliberately-masked) science or technology!
As Arthur C Clarke said: "Any sufficently-advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic!
Writer Robert Kahniger and illustrator Kurt Schaffenberger followed the concept to the letter in this never-reprinted tale from DC's Adventure Comics #395 (1970)!

Oddly, Schaffenberger began his career drawing Fawcett's magic-based Captain Marvel and Family!
(He would later return to them when DC acquired the rights from Fawcett Publishing!)
