Both of them are from Jun Mochizuki, so there are a lot of similarities everywhere. Main character, Claudia, looks like a younger version of Alice (main character from PH) and not only this, chara design is generally very similar! This manga is like a little sister for Pandora Hearts... And has a lot of bishonens and very good plot too!  

Crimson Shell was a sort of early incarnation of Jun Mochizuki's later work, Pandora Hearts. Both have her signature drawing style, and several of the character designs are similar. Both have similar settings and themes: An organization was instituted to fight against monsters, there is a girl who is one of those monsters but is different and more powerful. She has been forced to join the organization. A crucial part of the story is her trust in an older man, and how it seems that trust is betrayed. Lots of intrigue and magic. CS is only one volume, though.  

Both come from the same mangaka as well as having alot of spooky aesthetics to it as well. 

Both Pandora Hearts and Crimson-Shell are by Jun Mochizuki, and as such, a lot is similar between the two. The same atmosphere and feeling is present in both manga, but Crimson-Shell is a lot more straightforward than Pandora Hearts. The art style of Crimson-Shell and the first few volumes of Pandora Hearts are very similar as well, and as such, there are several characters that look similar. Even though it’s only 1 volume long, if you liked Pandora Hearts, you should like Crimson-Shell as well. 

Both are earlier short story works from notable mangakas with a spooky twist to them. 

Both manga are by Jun Mochizuki, and thus, both manga are pretty similar. The feeling and atmosphere of both are similar. Domi looks slightly like an older Claudia IMO as well. I prefer Vanitas no Carte, but Crimson-Shell is also worth reading as well if you like MochiJun’s works.
