Fleshless Ones

The Fleshless Ones were a race of malign skeletal creatures first introduced in Fawcett's horror line. Cruel, vicious and totally without mercy, they were bent on world domination, having succeeded in infiltrated human society at various levels.

Plotline
When rookie patrolman Perry Mahoney answers a desperate cry for help, he is confronted by a race of undead beings lurking in deep caverns and dark places beneath the streets. Motivated purely by hate, these creatures secretly plot to wipe out humanity and turn the world into a vast graveyard ruled over by the dead. When Mahoney discovers their existence, they respond by abducting his girlfriend, planning to convert her to one of "them" through a process too horrific to conceive. Tracking them to their lair, Mahoney manages to save Ellen from a fate literally worse than death ... only to discover that she may not be all that she seems.
