This episode features both comic and dramatic scenes starring the legendary Boris Karloff in one of his earliest appearances on Radio.

First Karloff spins a tale of murder and suspense with the help of Don Ameche. Then Karloff shifts gears to bring the funny with Charlie McCarthy. This one is a good one folks.

So please take the time machine with me to the year 1938 and be entertained by these voices from the past, alive again through the magic of the theater of the mind.
