Suspense is a radio drama series broadcast on CBS Radio from 1940 through 1962. One of the premier drama programs of the Golden Age of Radio, was subtitled "radio's outstanding theater of thrills" and focused on suspense thriller-type scripts, usually featuring leading Hollywood actors of the era. Approximately 945 episodes were broadcast during its long run, and more than 900 still exist. Suspense went through several major phases, characterized by different hosts, sponsors, and director/producers. Formula plot devices were followed for all but a handful of episodes: the protagonist was usually a normal person suddenly dropped into a threatening or bizarre situation; solutions were "withheld until the last possible second"; and evildoers were usually punished in the end. In its early years, the program made only occasional forays into science fiction and fantasy. Notable exceptions include adaptations of Curt Siodmak's Donovan's Brain and H. P. Lovecraft's "The Dunwich Horror", but by the late 1950s, such material was regularly featured.

Tales of Lost TV is a monthly column in which I examine a particular TV program or TV series either known or believed to be lost forever. The amount of lost TV is truly staggering–aside from a handful of exceptions everything broadcast prior to 1948 no longer exists. That doesn’t mean it all has to be forgotten. https://www.tvobscurities.com/2017/06/tales-of-lost-tv-television-ghost-1931-1933/ Indiegogo Campaigns Ultima Comics presents: The Founding Four Indiegogo Campaign Intro Video https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/ultima-comics-presents-the-founding-four/x/37904705#/ Amityville Barbi: the Movie Pitch Video https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/amityville-barbi-continued-crowdfunding/x/37904705#/ Cyberp0p: Control Theory https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/cyberp0p-control-theory/x/37904705#/ THE ART OF ABUSE - FINAL FUNDING https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/the-art-of-abuse-final-funding/x/37904705#/ Movies Stand by Me (1986) https://www.justwatch.com/ca/movie/stand-by-me The Shawshank Redemption (1994) https://www.justwatch.com/ca/movie/the-shawshank-redemption The Running Man (1987) https://www.justwatch.com/ca/movie/the-running-man The Green Mile (1999) https://www.justwatch.com/ca/movie/the-green-mile Games Nightwatch: Closer https://store.steampowered.com/app/3123250/Nightwatch_Closer/ Madness inside Demo https://store.steampowered.com/app/3184370/Madness_inside_Demo/ Bleeding Roots https://store.steampowered.com/app/3091770/Bleeding_Roots/ 诡拓 Demo https://store.steampowered.com/app/3011770/_Demo/ Special Thanks Agent of Social Media Chaos https://rumble.com/user/AgentofSocialMediaChaos Mr Rippers https://rumble.com/c/MrRippers Corpse Bomb Keef https://www.bitchute.com/channel/GFKKIcwur3tM Best Horror Scenes https://besthorrorscenes.com/ THE HORROR STREAM LIVE https://horrorstream.cloudaccess.host/index.php

The sealed book. Once again the keeper of the book is ready to open the ponderous volume in which is recorded all the secrets and mysteries of mankind through the ages. All the strange and mystifying stories of the past, the present and the future. Keeper of the book, what tale will you tell us this time? What tale shall I tell you? I have tales here of every kind. Tales of murder, tales of madness, of dark deeds and events strange beyond all belief. Let me see. Yes, here's a tale for you. The strange and terrible story of two old ladies and how they tried to escape from their doom. I call the story Escape by Death. My story begins in a big shabby old house in the country, fully a mile from any other habitation. In a large ground floor room, which is both their bedroom and sitting room, Martha and Louise Abbott listen to the wind howl outside. Louise is an invalid confined to a wheelchair. Martha, though able to walk, can only howl a few steps at a time so that to them the lonely house is almost like a prison. Listen to that wind Louise. Oh, I do hate living out in the country like this. We're so isolated from everybody. Oh, yes, Martha, it was so much nicer when we lived in our own house in the village. Even if Roger and Hester are our nephew and niece, we should never have let them persuade us to move out here with them. What is it, Toby? Queenie? Our mother's darling's hungry. Even Toby and Queenie don't like living here. Yes, they do seem unhappy. Queenie hasn't been eating well. Louise, it's very foolish for us to stay here with Roger and Hester. I think I hear Hester coming now. We'll tell her right away that we want to go back to our old home. Here I am at last, Aunt Louise, Aunt Martha. I brought you tea and some cake I just made this afternoon. Thank you, dear. I have the Daily Sentinel for you. George Gibson just delivered it. I haven't even opened it yet. Thank you. Roger, Louise and I have been talking things over. It was very kind of you to invite us to live here with you, but we were much happier living in the village. We want to go back. But Aunt Martha, it's much better for you here. Really it is. Of course. You're just homesick, both of you. You get over it. Pretty soon you'll love the country as much as we do. Now, we don't want to hear another word about your leaving us. We couldn't be happy thinking of you alone and helpless in the village. Come along, Roger. Let them drink their tea. All right, Heston. See you both later. Oh, I do wish they'd let us go back. There's no reason why we shouldn't. Do you remember the teas we used to give? Mary Thompson came over every afternoon. It was so nice. There's no reason we can't move back and get those teas again. We won't be alone or helpless either. With all the money Father left us, we can afford a dozen servants. Louise, we are going back. I've made up my mind. Oh, Martha, I'm so glad. Listen to Toby and Queenie. They're glad we're going back too, aren't you, you fat old darlings? Oh, they understand you, Martha. They know we're not going to stay here much longer. Of course they do. Well, now that's settled, let's see what's in the sentinel. Let's see now. Oh, Martha, let's look at the obituary notices first. Just what I was turning to, Louise. Ah, here we are. Did anyone we know die? Now let me see. Ah, yes, yes. You remember Amos Wilson, don't you? Yes. He died two days ago. Poor Amos. He was about your age, wasn't he, Martha? Certainly not. He was a good deal older. Oh, Martha, look at this. Why, it says that Mary Thompson is entering the county home for the infirm. The poor house? Oh, no, no, it can't be. You can read it for yourself. Oh, that dreadful place. I'd rather be dead than in that home. Poor Mary. Martha, after we move back to the village, can't we have Mary come to live with us? Yes, of course. Why, going to the poor house would be the death of her. No, no, it can't be. What can't be? Read what it says there in the real estate column. The old Abbott mansion, owned by the Mrs. Martha and Louise Abbott, has been put up for sale by their nephew, Roger Clark. What? Well, it must be a mistake. We never told Rogers to sell our house. Roger! Roger! Now, Martha, we mustn't get excited. Why should he want to sell our house? I won't permit it. Are you calling me, Aunt Martha? Yes, Roger. What's this in the sentinel about our house being up for sale? Oh, is it in the sentinel? Oh, I'm so sorry. It is a mistake, isn't it, Roger? Well, no, Aunt Louise. Since the house isn't being used, I thought it would be a good idea to sell it. But you had no right to put the house up for sale without telling me. Now, don't get yourself excited, Aunt Martha. If you don't want the house sold, I'll remove it from the market. You must, Roger. We couldn't live if the house was sold. All right, all right. Now, I'll take care of everything. Don't you worry. Everything's going to be all right. I don't like it, Louise. I don't like it at all. Why should he try to sell it without telling us? He does seem strange. Louise, we must get in touch with Judge Morris at once. He's the administrator of Father's estate. He'll take care of everything for us the way we want it. I didn't like the look in Roger's eyes just now. I've always been suspicious of Roger, and if you want my opinion, he and Hester are up to something. Is Mother's beautiful Queenie hungry? Well, here's a nice piece of meat from the lovely supper Hester just brought us. Oh, Queenie is hungry, Martha. She's got her appetite back since she learned we intend going back to the village. Yes, she has, but where's Toby? I don't see him around anyplace. Probably in the kitchen. Martha, when are you going to speak to Roger and Hester again about our leaving? I'm waiting until we can get in touch with Judge Morris. He'll come get us whether Roger wants us to go or not. There's been something very strange about Roger's manner ever since we told him yesterday we didn't want to stay. Martha, look. Queenie's ill. That meat you gave her, it's made her sick. Queenie, what's the matter with Mother's darling? Martha, there's something terribly wrong with her. Queenie, what is it? Oh, Louise, what can we do? Give her some water. Maybe that'll help. Martha, she's fallen down. Is she... is she... She's dead, Louise. Queenie is dead. Oh, no. No, she can't be. She is, though she was perfectly all right until I gave her that meat. She was so hungry, she just boated it down. Martha, she must have choked on it. She's choked to death. Did she? I'm not so sure. Martha, what do you mean? What else could it have been? She acted more as if she were poisoned. Poisoned? Yes, I'm sure of it. The meat was poisoned. That's why Queenie died. But how's that possible? It was poisoned because that meat was meant for us. Martha, you... you don't mean that Roger and Hester... Yes, Louise. Oh, I see it now. That's why they brought us out here, why they won't let us leave. They're planning to kill us. They're after our money. Oh, Martha, what are we going to do? We've got to get in touch with Judge Morris right away. He'll save us. But, Martha, how can we? The telephone, it's upstairs in Hester's room. And neither of us can climb stairs. I know that. We've got to figure another way to reach him. Louise, our lives depend upon it. RUMBLE All that night, the two old ladies, terror in their hearts, tossed and turned in an effort to think of a way of escape from the horrible trap in which they found themselves. In the morning, they thought they had discovered how to do it. When George Gibson, the rural mail carrier, came by, Louise called him and gave him a frantic message to Judge Morris, which he promised to deliver. However, a few minutes later, encountering Roger, their nephew, George Gibson told him what had happened, and Roger managed to persuade him not to deliver the message. Then Roger hurried home to consult with Hester. Roger, you say that while Martha was out here in the kitchen with me, Louise was giving George Gibson a message for Judge Morris? Yes. And she seems so excited that George stopped me on the road to tell me about it. Hester, I'm afraid they suspect. Oh, no, no, they mustn't. We mustn't let them. I should say not. After all the trouble we've gone to, we would ruin everything. We've got to quiet their suspicion somehow. We've got to make them like it here, so they'd be perfectly content to stay with us until they die. Well, let's go. Let's go. And now to return to the story of escape by death as it is written in the sealed book. For 24 hours Martha and Louise have waited in trembling impatience for George Gibson to bring word that Judge Morris has received their frantic appeal for help. Oh Martha, where can George be? He's more than an hour late. He's probably just been delayed. Maybe the car broke down. He'll be here soon. Yes, here he comes now. He's turning up the drive. Oh Martha, I was so worried. I told you he wouldn't fail us. But there's Roger taking the mail from him. Suppose Roger doesn't let him see us. He might... Louise. What is it Martha? What's wrong? That isn't George Gibson delivering the mail. Not George Gibson. No, that's a much younger man. Now he's leaving. Roger's coming back in the house. Martha, where do you suppose George is? I don't know. I don't understand. Perhaps he's sick today. Here comes Roger. Hello Aunt Martha, Aunt Louise. Here's a magazine that came in the mail. I thought you might like to see it. Thank you Roger. Why didn't George Gibson deliver the mail today? Oh, you saw that there was a new driver. Well, I'm sorry to have to tell you this, but yesterday afternoon poor George was killed. Killed? Oh no. He had a bad accident as he was returning to the village. An accident? Yes. I'd rather not talk about it anymore now. It'll just upset you. Hess will bring you some supper soon. Poor George. That means Judge Morris didn't get our message. Oh Martha. Don't you see Louise? That wasn't any accident. George was killed to keep him from going to Judge Morris. Martha, you can't mean that Roger and Hess... Yes Louise. They'll stop at nothing to get our money. But what are we going to do? We can't get a message to anyone and they're poisoning our food. We haven't eaten a thing since poor Queenie died. We can't go on throwing the food away or we'll starve. There's only one thing to do. Toby must sample our food. You mean to see if it's poison? Yes. It's dreadful having to risk poor Toby's life, but it's the only thing we can do. Here you are Toby. A nice piece of meat for Mother's darling. Oh Martha, I get so frightened every time I see Toby eating something. I keep remembering Queenie and the dreadful way she died. Now, now Louise, we mustn't think of that. Here Toby dear. Martha, why are you feeding Toby? Well he gets plenty to eat in the kitchen. He'll die of overeating if you aren't careful. I've always fed Toby from my own plate. He expects it. But Aunt Martha, if you feed that meat to the cat, that won't be enough for you. No. And if you're to get well, you need all that food. Now I don't want you feeding Toby any more of it. Here Toby. Come on boy. Come on, come on. Come on. Come on out to the kitchen. I'll have Martha and Louise eat their supper. Here you are Aunt Martha. Aunt Louise, I've brought you your lunch. Doesn't it look good? Yes, Esther. It's very nice. Here Toby. Here. Esther, have you seen Toby? No Aunt Martha, I haven't. But where could he be? Toby's always on time for meals. Oh, he's probably someplace around the house. Now eat your lunch before it gets cold. Oh Martha, where can he be? Toby will be along in a few minutes. We won't touch a bit of this food until he's eaten some of it. I do wish he were here. I'm so hungry. Louise, don't touch a thing on that tray. It isn't safe. Here Toby. Here. Good evening Aunt Martha and Aunt Louise. How are you? Good evening Roger. I have supper here for you two. Why Aunt Martha, neither of you ate your lunch. What's wrong? We, we weren't hungry, Esther. Have you found Toby yet? No, I've looked everywhere for him but he seems to have disappeared. Oh no. Now, now, now, you mustn't worry. I'm sure he'll turn up all right. Aunt Martha, you and Aunt Louise can't afford to miss meals in your state of health. Certainly not. Now we want you to eat everything that Esther's brought you. You'll make us very unhappy if you don't. Now please eat it while it's hot. Come along Roger. I'll get you your supper. All right dear. Did you hear what she said about Toby, Louise? Yes, he's vanished. Nonsense, they've killed him. You saw how angry they were last night when we fed Toby from our plates. They've killed him so he won't spoil their plans. Oh Martha, what are we going to do? I'm so hungry that my head spins and I'm dizzy. Oh no Louise, so am I. Oh I hate them, I hate them. We're leaving them our money and our wills. They'll get it soon enough. Why must they kill us? Because they're nothing but common murderers. I distrusted Roger from the minute Esther first brought him to our house. Yes, it's his fault. He's changed, Esther. She used to be such a sweet girl. There was only some way to get word to the village or to bring somebody here to help us. Louise, I have an idea. What is it Martha? There's one way to bring people here. What Martha? If we were to set fire to the house, somebody would be sure to see the flames. Yes, of course. And then the fire company would come out. Then we'd be able to tell them we'd be saved. Oh but Martha, Esther and Roger would put out the fire before it could get big enough to be seen. Louise, I know a way we can prevent them from putting out the fire. You do? Yes, we can save ourselves Louise. We can save ourselves. It'll be, it'll be, it'll be. Now Martha, why are you looking down the cellar stairs like that? Now you should be in your room. You certainly should. It's drafty out here in the hall. Now close the cellar door and go back to your room. But I heard Toby crying. He's down in the cellar and I won't go to my room until I get him. But Aunt Martha, he... Roger, just to put Aunt Martha's mind at ease, why don't you go down the cellar and see if Toby is there. Oh, all right. But if you ask me, it's just a waste of time. Please help him look for Toby, Esther. You'll find him so much quicker if you both look for him. Please. But Aunt Martha... Oh, very well. But you go back to your room so you don't catch cold. Roger, do you see him? He doesn't seem to be any place here in the cellar. Now we'll see just how smart you are trying to poison us. You won't stop us from escaping now. Let's get Louise. Louise, Louise, it worked. You mean you were able to lock them in the cellar? Yes, and with the door locked, they can't get out. They found out they're locked in. Now don't you worry about it, Louise. I'll take care of everything. What are you doing with that kerosene lamp, Martha? I'm pouring the kerosene around the room so it will burn better. There. Are you ready to leave, Louise? Yes, Martha, yes. Then I'll strike a match and start the fire. Oh, quickly, it's starting to spread. Yes, we've got to leave. I'll push your wheelchair, Louise, as you try to help by rolling the fields. Yes, Martha. There we're coming along nicely. Good morning. Come on. Just a little bit more. Martha, I do hate to do this. Louise, you mustn't waste any pity on them. Even if they are our niece and nephew, they're nothing but common murderers. Yes, I suppose you're right. Now I'll just open the front door and we'll be free. Now, roll the wheels a bit more. Just a few feet more and we'll be safe. Yes, I have said. There. Now we're far enough away from the house to be perfectly safe. Oh, my. The whole house is on fire. Do you think they can see it in the village by now, Martha? I'm sure they do. Now, remember, Louise, when the fire company gets here, we don't know what happened to Roger and Hester. We just managed to get out ourselves. Yes, Martha. If we told them what we were forced to do to escape, we'd have to reveal that our own niece and nephew were poisonous murderers. We don't want to disgrace the family name, Louise. Oh, no, Martha, of course not. Look, Martha, look. The float is going. And here comes the fire engine. Louise, we're saved. We're saved. Good morning, Judge Morris. Good morning, Miss Martha, Miss Louise. I trust you're well after that terrible ordeal last night. Oh, we're feeling much better. Thank you, Judge Morris. I know it'll be painful for you, but now that your niece and nephew are gone, we must plan for your future. Oh, you don't have to bother, Judge. All we want to do is move back to our old house, hire a few servants and live as we used to. Oh, yes. And I was wondering if you could arrange to have Mary Thompson come live with us. I won't hear of her going to that dreadful home for the infirm. Why, the poor house would be the death of her. Oh, no, we can't let her go there. With all the money Father left us, there's no reason why she should. Ladies, I'd hoped I'd never have to reveal the truth to you, but now it appears I must. The truth? I don't understand, Judge. Some weeks ago, the bonds in the trust fund your father left you became utterly worthless. What? Your nephew and niece were afraid the shock of learning you were penniless would be too much for you, so it was decided to keep the news from you. That's why the three of us persuaded you to move in with them. Your house here in the village had to be sold to meet the debts of the estate. But, but that can't be. Father left us so much. It's all worthless now. Perhaps I should have told you this a month ago, but your niece and nephew wouldn't hear of it. In spite of the fact that they had only Roger's salary to live on, they were determined to prevent you from ever learning of your misfortune. But the, the deaths of poor Queenie and Toby are of George Gibson. George Gibson? Yes. I'm afraid I don't understand. Surely you heard that he was killed, the tire blew out and his car turned over. You mean he wasn't murdered? Certainly not. Oh. Are you feeling well? Has my news been too much for you? No, no. Well, now that your niece and nephew are gone, there's no one to support you. I'm afraid there's only one thing left. One thing left? What's that? I'm sorry to say, believe me I am. The county home for the infirm. Oh. The poor house. And that is the tale of escape by death, as it is written in the sealed book. Louise and Martha, because they could not believe that the death of their cat was an accident, convinced themselves that they were in danger of being killed and in their frantic efforts to escape ruthlessly destroyed their only protectors. Strange are the ways in which fate plays tricks on mere mortals. The sound of the great gong tells me it's time to close the sealed book once more. One moment, keeper of the book. What story from the sealed book will you tell us next time? Next time? What kind of a tale would you like? A story of ghosts, of vampires, of werewolves howling in the night? A tale of dark plots and evil deeds? Of a strange fate overtaking the guilty? Let me see. I'll find one for you in just a moment. I'll find one for you in just a moment. A story of dark plots and evil deeds? And now, keeper of the book, have you found the story that you'll tell next time? Yes, yes, I found one for you. It's the amazing story of a woman's jealousy, so great that it would not let her lie quietly in her grave, but made her seek revenge even from behind the dark veil of death. I call it Death at Stormhouse. Be sure to be with us next time to hear another strange and mysterious story from the sealed book.

The sealed book. Once again the keeper of the book is ready to open the ponderous volume in which is recorded all the secrets and mysteries of mankind through the ages. All the strange and mystifying stories of the past, the present, and the future. Keeper of the book, what tale will you tell us this time? What tale shall I tell you? I have here tales of every kind. Tales of murder, of madness, of dark deeds and events strange beyond all belief. Now let me see. Yes, yes, here's a tale for you. The story of a small and desolate island off the coast of New England and the people who lived on it. The title of the tale is Devil Island. Here is the tale as it was told by Anne Drake and is written in the sealed book. It all began on that bleak autumn day when I hired a motorboat to take me out to the island, Devil Island. The bleak looking island which lay ahead and belonged to the Drake family for 200 years was to be my new home. I kept staring at it, wondering what it would be like to live on this island with my father whom I'd never seen. 20 minutes later the boatman had landed me at the dock and left. Towering above me was a high cliff and on top of it was the house, a huge stone mansion that looked as old and weather beaten as a medieval castle. I climbed the steep rocky path that led from the dock to the house. Hello, I'm... Don't tell me. Anne, I recognize you any place. You look exactly like your mother. Are you my father? Yes. Are you disappointed? Oh no, no of course not. Come into the drawing room. Your stepmother and uncle are waiting to meet you. Hester, Henry. I want you to meet my daughter Anne. Anne, this is a great pleasure. Thank you, Uncle Henry. Anne, I'm your stepmother and I can't tell you how happy I am to have you here. Won't you call me Hester? Thank you. I'd like to. Oh, and let me introduce you to the remaining member of the household, Anne. This is Abel. He served the family for 30 years. He can't talk but he understands what you're saying. Abel, this is my daughter. Hello, Abel. Oh, Anne, it's going to be wonderful having you here. You're just what Drake Manor needs to make it live again. I do hope we'll be able to make you happier. The week slipped by and I was happy. I spent the days reading with father and taking long walks with Uncle Henry and being taught cooking by Hester. And at night, Uncle Henry and I would play chess. Well, that's another game for you, Anne. The trouble is I taught you how to play the game too well. Oh, it looks as though another Northeaster is on its way. Yes, it does. Would you like me to draw the curtains, Uncle Henry? If you will, Anne, that window over there seems to be... He's there, looking in at me. Who, Uncle Henry? There's no one at the window. Can't you see him? He's beckoning to me. But there's no one there. Here, I'll draw the curtains. Is that better? He can't see me now but he's still out there waiting for me. Who is? Your uncle, Richard. Uncle Richard? But he's been dead for 15 years. Yes, I know. And now he's come for me. No, Uncle Henry, you only imagined you saw him. Perhaps the same thing is happening to me that happened to the others. What happened to the others? Your grandfather, Daniel, Aunt Harriet, Uncle Richard. They all died insane. Oh, no. No, it can't be. But they did, Anne. There's a strain of insanity in the Drake family. Aunt Harriet, for weeks before she died, kept screaming that Grandfather Daniel was trying to pull her into the grave. And Uncle Richard, he died crying out that Aunt Harriet was at the window calling him. Oh, no. No. They all died during a storm like this one. And now my time has come. Richard is waiting for me. I'll be the next of the Drakes to die. Please, Uncle Henry, you mustn't say things like that. Oh, Anne. I'm so afraid of insanity. Of dying. Uncle Henry, I'll spend all of my time with you now. We'll end this nightmare you're living in. If you only end to it, we'll be dead. Uncle Henry never spoke of his terrible fear again. But in the weeks that followed, he grew haggard, became frightened at the sound of a door opening. Then one day, another Northeaster set in. By nightfall, it had whipped itself into a gale. At midnight, I woke suddenly to hear Uncle Henry speaking to someone in his room. Richard, stop tapping on my window. Go away, do you hear? Why can't you leave me alone? I don't want to go with you. No, not yet. I quickly opened my door. I stepped into the hall. Please, don't take me now. Uncle Henry's voice grew wilder and wilder as I approached his room. Why don't you go away? You're dead. Dead. You have no right to bother the living. Uncle Henry, let me in. It's Anne. Uncle Henry, please unlock the door. I won't go with you, Richard. My time hasn't come yet. No, I won't. You can't make me. Uncle Henry. Why are you raising my window? No, Richard. Don't come in. Stay away from me. Uncle Henry. Uncle Henry. Uncle Henry. Uncle Henry. Uncle Henry. Uncle Henry. Uncle Henry. Uncle Henry. Uncle Henry. Uncle Henry. Uncle Henry. Uncle Henry. Uncle Henry. Anne, what is it? What's wrong? Father, do something. It's Uncle Henry. He was screaming. Now he... Come here, dear. Hush. Now, hush. No. The door is locked. I'll have to break it down. Henry. Father. Father, is he? Yes. He's in there. He's in there. He's in there. He's in there. He's in there. He's in there. He's in there. He's in there. He's in there. He's in there. He's in there. He's in there. Yes. Yes, Anne. He's dead. Here in the island, burying grounds of six generations of drakes, we place the remains of our beloved brother and uncle, Henry Drake, secure in the knowledge that in thy arms he shall find everlasting. Oh, dear. Life in this house won't be the same without Henry. Father, Uncle Henry was terribly frightened for weeks before he died. Anne, whatever are you talking about? It all began during that Northeaster we had last month. Uncle Henry and I were playing chess. But Anne, why didn't Henry tell me about those hallucinations he was having? He didn't want to worry you. Father, did Aunt Harriet, Uncle Richard, and your father die insane? Oh, Anne, Henry should never have told you about them. Promise me you won't worry about our hereditary trouble. I'll try not to, Father. We've lost Henry, but the three of us will go on as before. The three of us tried to go on as before, but an unspoken fear had crept into our lives. Then I turned to find Father and Hester watching me anxiously. Then a month after Uncle Henry's death, another storm lashed the island. I'll be glad when this storm blows over. It's getting on my nerves. Father, why don't we close up Drake Manor for a few weeks and take a vacation on the mainland? You mean lead the island? No, that's impossible, Anne. We have enough money to get along on the island, but not elsewhere. I have all that money. My mother left me. We could use that. You won't receive that money until you're 21. That's six months from now. Besides... Anne, what are you staring at? Look. Look at the window. Eh? It's Uncle Henry. He's beckoning to me. Anne, there's no one at the window. He's there, I tell you. He's there. Look. Now he's gone away. Oh, you saw him, didn't you? You must have. Darling, you only imagined you saw him. Oh, no, no, I did see him. He was beckoning to me the way Uncle Richard beckoned to him. And I'm going to be the next break to die. Anne, what are you saying? Oh, you mustn't talk like that. You just imagined you saw Uncle Henry. It was just a... An hallucination. And I'm going insane, as he did. Oh, no, no, don't say that. Anne, you must rid your mind of all these fears, of everything Henry told you. Promise me you won't think about it anymore. That was a promise I couldn't keep. At night, I'd lie in the darkness in my room, thinking of everything that had happened, listening to the night noises. And one night, I heard footsteps above me in the tower. That limp, that unmistakable limp, it was Uncle Henry in the tower. There was an icy coldness about the house as I climbed the steps to the tower. I opened the door. The tower was in complete darkness, but by a window, his face ghost-like in the moonlight. It was Uncle Henry. I've come to take you with me, Anne. Your time has come. The grave will wait no longer. No, no. Do not be afraid. Your death is not a thing to be feared, but to be welcomed. No, no, stay away from me. I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid. You have to stay away from me. I cannot return to the grave without you. Give me your hand. No. No, no. And now for the rest of the story, Devil Island, as it is written in the sealed book. Martin Drake, hearing Anne's screams, rushed up to the tower of the old mansion to find her lying unconscious on the floor. After Martin and Hester had taken the girl back to her bed, Martin went to the mainland. At dawn, he returned with a doctor and waited impatiently for him to finish examining Anne. I've just given her a sedative, Mr. Drake, she's asleep now. Will she be all right, doctor? I'm afraid she's on the borderline of insanity. Oh no! And I'm afraid in a case of this type, where there is inherited insanity, there's very little that can be done. Well, sleepyhead, it's about time you were waking up. Hello father, how long have I been asleep? A little over ten hours. It's just getting dark outside. Is the doctor still here? No, Anne, he left hours ago. And darling, he says you're going to get well. Why, of course you are. Now you'd better get some more rest. Good night, darling. A moment later they were gone. I was alone again, alone in the dark. And all I could think of was, I was going insane. Perhaps I was already mad. The hours passed. The very stillness of the house made my heart pound in my ears. And then stillness was broken. That limp again. It was Uncle Henry in the tower. Back and forth from one end of the tower to the other, he limped. And silence. I lay in the darkness waiting, waiting. And then suddenly the door to my room was opened. I wanted to scream, but I couldn't. Oh, Abel. Oh, Abel, what are you doing in my room? What are you trying to tell me? I don't understand. Oh, he's walking again. Abel, you hear him, don't you? You do hear it. I told them that Uncle Henry had come back from the grave, but they said I was just imagining it. You mean no? He hasn't come back from the grave? But if he hasn't come back from the grave, and you hear what I hear, you... Abel, you don't mean that he's still alive. But that can't be true. You buried him yourself. I saw you. You mean you didn't bury him? That he wasn't in the coffin? Oh, but you must be wrong. When we broke into his room, Father found him. No, no, what? What do you mean no? Are you trying to tell me something about Father? What do you mean Father no? Father no? You mean he isn't my father? But you must be wrong. Of course he is. That doesn't make sense. Why should he say he is my father if he isn't? What does he gain by it? My mother's estate. Oh, no, no, you must be wrong. Even if I were to die, he wouldn't get it. His estate would then go to charity. It's in Mother's will. Oh, why does he keep walking in the tower? He's driving me crazy. Driving me crazy. You mean they want to drive me crazy. Oh, but why? What reason could they have? Oh, if I were to become insane, he could have himself appointed my guardian and take over the estate. Is that it? It is. But, but, Ava, if he isn't my father, where is my father? Is he dead? I mean, he is dead. Oh, then who are these three who say they're my father and stepmother and uncle? I don't understand, but no matter who they are, they'll kill me. They'll kill both of us. If they learn we've discovered their secret. Oh, but we've got to escape. But how? The only boat is locked and he has the key. Why are you hanging with that flashlight? You mean the window? Signal the mainland for help. Yes, of course. Ava, you better go. We can't let them find you in here. They'll suspect. I'll keep signaling as long as the batteries last. I can't keep signaling much longer. And what are you doing out of bed? And with that flashlight? Nothing, nothing at all. You weren't signaling someone on the mainland, were you? No, no, I just had the flashlight in case someone came in the room. Why you're trembling as though you were frightened. You're not afraid of your own father, are you dear? No, no, of course not. Now, now, no more walking around. I want you to get some sleep. Good night, dear. It was gone. Taking the flashlight with him. Did he suspect that I knew? Oh, the hours seemed endless until the first rays of dawn came. Would rescue come with it? Or had my signals gone unnoticed? After I dressed, I went to the window and then I saw it. The strange lounge tied up at the dock. Suddenly frightened as the callers leave before I could speak to them, I rushed out of the room. They ran down the stairs. I could hear voices in the drawing room. Well, Sheriff, if Dr. Arnold has spoken to you about my daughter's mental condition, I'm quite sure you'll understand. Don't listen to him. He isn't my father. What was that, Miss? I tell you, he's not my father. He's an imposter. And so is she. Oh, Martin, she's having another one of her spells. Now, please, Hester. They're acting, I tell you. The moment I set foot on the island, they began their plan to drive me insane. First, they gained my love and trust. Then they had Uncle Henry confide to me his fears. And when Uncle Henry was found dead, they told me... Hello. Who says I'm dead? Oh, you... I've never felt better. Oh, Sheriff, allow me to introduce my brother, Henry. Well, Miss Drake, your Uncle Henry doesn't look very dead. He wasn't. They just pretended he was. They even buried an empty coffin to make me think I was attending his funeral. I really think you should take Anne up to her room, Hester. She needs rest. Oh, Sheriff, they're lying, the three of them. Have you any proof, Miss Drake? Yes. Yes, Abel will tell you. He knows. I'm afraid that Abel can't tell you anything, dear. The poor chap fell off Devil's Cliff into the sea early this morning. Oh, you pushed him off the cliff so that he couldn't talk. My excitement's too high, she's getting worse. Sorry to trouble you, Mr. Drake, but it was my duty to investigate those signals. Sheriff, you can't leave me here. They will drive me insane. I assure you, Sheriff, she'll be given the very best of care. We have a specialist coming to see her next day. Oh, no, Sheriff, wait. Wait, please. Now, Miss Drake, I think you'd better stop this. No, no, no, wait. I just want to show you this gold locket. Look, look, I'll open it. Do you see what's inscribed in it? Yes, for my daughter in commemoration of her fifth birthday. What are you driving at, Miss Drake? If that man's my father, as he claims he is, ask him what my middle name is. It's inscribed in the locket. Well, just to humor her, Mr. Drake, what is her middle name? Her middle name? Well, frankly, Sheriff, I seem to have forgotten. Oh, he hasn't forgotten it, Sheriff. He never knew what he is and my father. Kind of strange, you're not knowing your own daughter's middle name. Well, it's just that, well, I have an awful memory for names. So have I, but I know my kid's middle name. There's something peculiar about all this. I think you three and the girl better come with me to the mainland. What for? So I can do a little checking. If you're Martin Drake, as you say you are, there must be someone on the mainland who can identify you. I see here, Sheriff, this is ridiculous. I said you're going to the mainland with me. Well, I always said you were the weak link in the chain, Gerald. Shut up, you fool. It's no use, Gerald, the game is up. The trip to the mainland is more than we can stand. You just have to look at Hester's face to see that she agrees. Who are you folks? We're actors. Things having become difficult a few years ago, we accepted employment on this island from Mr. Drake. When he died, I thought of this little scheme. It really was a perfect plan until this fool slipped up on the girl's middle name. By the way, what is her middle name? Why, according to this, she's a little girl. But according to this locket, she hasn't one. It's just inscribed to Anne. And that is the story of Devil Island as it is written in the sealed book. Because an imposter slipped up on a middle name that didn't exist, an almost perfect crime was prevented by Sheriff Williams, and an innocent girl was rescued from imprisonment and probable death. It was a small slip, but a fatal one. But the sound of the great gong tells me I must close the sealed book once again. One moment, keeper of the book. What story will you tell us next time? Next time? Are you sure you want to know? Perhaps my next story may be about you. For I have here all the stories that ever happened, and many that have yet to come to pass. But I'll find one for you in just a moment. I'll find one for you in just a moment. And now, keeper of the book, have you found the story that you'll tell next week? Yes, yes, I have found one. It's the story of two helpless old ladies in fear of their lives, and the desperate measures to which they were driven in order to save themselves. The title of the tale is Escape by Death. Yes. Be sure and be with us again next time when the great gong heralds another strange and exciting story from... The Sealed Book.

The Seal Book. Once again, the keeper of the book is ready to open the ponderous volume in which is recorded all the secrets and mysteries of mankind through the ages. All the strange and mystifying stories of the past, the present, and the future. The Seal Book. The Seal Book. The Seal Book. Keeper of the book, what tale will you tell us this time? What tale shall I tell you? I have here tales of every kind. Tales of murder, of madness, of dark deeds and events strange beyond all belief. Let me see. Yes, here is a tale for you. The strange tale of an old woman and of three heirs greedy for her millions. A tale I call Death Spins a Web. And here is the tale as it is written in the Seal Book. In a great mansion far from the city, Mrs. Oliver Drake lies dying. Her door opens and her attorney Henry Arnold enters. Good morning Mrs. Drake. How do you feel today? Henry, two days ago Dr. Smith told me I had two months to live. That's how I feel, like somebody who has two months to live. You take it well Mrs. Drake. Tell me, have those three worthless grandchildren gotten here yet? Blanche and Vivian have. They're outside in the hall now. But you want to see them? I don't want to see them, no. But I will. We have things to talk over. Of course. I'll send them in. Your grandmother will see you now. Thank you. Oh Granny darling, it's so nice to see you again. Why you don't look sick at all. That must be quite a disappointment to you Vivian. Dear Granny, it's so good to see you again. How are you darling? Dr. Smith says I may live for another ten years. Now Blanche, you mustn't look so downcast. Perhaps I can arrange to die sooner. Granny, you know I didn't mean any- Hello Granny, sorry I'm late. Our family playboy has arrived. Chris, these are your cousins Blanche and Vivian. I'm very happy to meet both of you. Strange Chris, that we've never met before. We've been to so many of the same places. Monte Carlo, Paris, Dovey. I'm sorry that we didn't Blanche. Until now I had no idea that I had such a beautiful cousin. Chris, I'm Vivian, one of your unknown polo admirers. I saw you play at Bentonhurst last year. You were magnificent. Chris is magnificent at everything that's a waste of time. By the way Chris, whatever became of that princess you were married to. Oh you mean Irina. We were divorced two months ago Granny. Congratulations. What about you Blanche? Are you still married to that third husband of yours? Oh no Granny, I got rid of him a year ago. What about you Vivian? I'm free at the moment darling. You know if I were to search the entire world for the three most useless people, I don't think I could do better than you three. As far as I'm concerned you're undoubtedly right darling. If I had my way I'd cut you three vultures off without a penny and leave everything to charity. Unfortunately under your grandfather's will I have to divide the fortune among the three of you. But I'm permitted to divide it any way I see fit. But of course you're going to divide the money equally between us aren't you Granny? No dear, that's just it. I'm not. What? I'm going to leave the fortune to just one of you. The other two will merely receive token inheritances. But why Granny? I feel that one of you must be just a shade less useless to society than the other two. And to that one I intend to bequeath the fortune. I see. And have you made up your mind yet? No. I want the three of you to live with me for a few weeks so that I can become better acquainted with each of you. And at the end of that time I shall make my decision. In the days that followed Blanche, Vivian and Chris spent a good deal of time with their grandmother. Mrs Drake preferred to see them separately and often after one of the three had left her bedroom there was a gleam of amusement in her eye. As though she were enjoying a private joke. Chris meanwhile, working on a plan of his own, also saw a lot of his beautiful cousins separately. Oh Chris, isn't it beautiful out here? You're very beautiful Blanche. As beautiful as the night itself. You don't have to say that Chris. Just because there's a full moon. It's not the moon. Darling, life hasn't been the same since I met you. The moment our eyes met I was lost. Oh Chris. Chris, I felt the same way. Only I didn't think you did. But I do darling. Then you're going riding with Vivian each morning doesn't mean anything? Oh of course not. You're the one I love and always will. Oh Chris. Chris, I do so want to believe you. I've been so unhappy. None of my husbands ever understood me. But I do darling. And I love you very much. Oh. Oh. You know that now don't you? Yes Chris. Yes. I do. Oh Chris. It's a wonderful morning. The air feels so clean. Oh you look lovely Vivian with your cheeks so flushed and your hair windblown. Look at me Vivian. Oh Chris. Chris don't. You had no right to kiss me. Let me go. Your lips say let me go but that isn't what your eyes are saying is it darling? No Chris. No it's not. Oh Chris this isn't just one of your famous flirtations. No darling. I think I fell in love with you the moment I saw you. You do care for me don't you Vivian? Yes Chris. Yes I do. I understand you want to see me Granny. Yes. Come over here Chris. Well how did you make out? What do you mean? I said how did you make out? With Vivian of course. So you know that I was out riding with Vivian. I know everything that goes on in this house. Vivian may not know that you took Blanche for a walk down by the lake last night but I know. Oh now Granny you're not going to give my little game away are you? Oh Chris no. I find it very enjoyable watching an unmitigated scoundrel make love to two women at the same time. Well after all Granny if you don't leave me the fortune I have no choice but to marry whichever one of them inherits it. But they're such stupid women Chris. You yourself are a rogue but at least an amusing one for those women. And that's the reason you ought to leave me the fortune Granny. The pity I'm not twenty years younger isn't it Chris? Then your charm might have some effect upon me. Yes you're quite right. Well Chris you'd better get back to Blanche and Vivian. After all one of them might be an heiress. An heiress' demand attention. A week passed. A week in which Kraus Chris found it more and more difficult to play his little game. Blanche and Vivian stopped speaking to each other and it became steadily harder for him to convince each of them that he had no interest in the other. Good morning darling. Oh hello Blanche. Well aren't you even going to kiss me? Oh of course dear. Oh Chris I do love you so. This past week has been heavenly. Chris you do love me don't you? Darling what a question. You know there couldn't be anyone for me but you. Then why do you spend so much time with Vivian? That's how I keep tabs on her. What do you mean? Blanche Vivian is cheating in an effort to get Granny's fortune. Cheating? How? The three of us agreed not to go see Granny unless she sent for us. Yes. Well Vivian has already broken that agreement. Several times she sneaked into Granny's bedroom to try to influence the old lady in her favor. Why that dirty double crossing two timing. Chris do you think Vivian's getting anywhere? Well when Granny sent for me last night she more or less hinted that it would be Vivian who would inherit the fortune. Chris how can you take it so calmly? We've got to do something. Please darling let me handle this. I have a plan to take care of Vivian and to take care of her very effectively. Hello Vivian how are you darling? Let go of me Chris. Let go. But what's wrong darling? Aren't you afraid Blanche may be wondering where you are? Oh so that's it. Yes that's it. Vivian listen to me. Whatever time I've spent with Blanche hasn't been because I wanted to. All I've been doing is protecting our interests. Protecting our interests. You may not know it but Blanche has broken the agreement the three of us had. She's been sneaking in to see Granny behind our backs. Why that low down conniving for Oxide Blonde. That's the reason I've spent so much time with Blanche. To learn if Granny is being influenced by her. And is she Chris? Blanche seems to feel certain she's going to inherit the fortune. Oh Chris what are we going to do? You can do as you please. After I've spent days with that hag trying to protect our interests and ensure our future happiness you accuse me of making love to her. I didn't say that. Well you intimated as much. Please Chris don't be angry. I'm terribly sorry I lost my temper. Please say you forgive me darling. Please. I'll never doubt you again. A few days later after a particularly severe heart attack Mrs. Drake sent for her three grandchildren. I suppose you're wondering why I sent for you aren't you? Frankly yes Granny darling. In the two weeks that you've been living with me I've come to the conclusion that you three are the shallowest and most useless people alive. Why Granny? If I could I'd leave the entire fortune to charity. But the will of your grandfather provides that the fortune is to be divided among you. I want you to know that I finally made my choice. You have? And who's the lucky one among us Granny? My attorney Mr. Arnold is coming from the city the day after tomorrow to draw up my will. When I'm dead he'll reveal to you who the fortune goes to. Until then you'll just have to be patient and try to guess. The fortune is to be divided among you. The fortune is to be divided among you. The fortune is to be divided among you. The fortune is to be divided among you. Music And now the story continues as it is written here in the pages of the sealed book. For several days Blanche and Vivian and Chris have waited in suspense to learn their grandmother's decision as to who is to inherit her money. Then one morning looking very upset Chris seeks out his cousin Blanche. Blanche. Chris. What is it? Is anything wrong? Everything's wrong. What is it Chris tell me. Earlier this morning Granny sent for me. I managed to whittle out of her who the fortune is going to. You did? Oh Chris who's going to get it? Vivian. Vivian. Yes. We're each to receive five thousand dollars while she gets millions. Oh Chris. Chris it's not fair. Oh shh. Don't cry darling. I could stand the thought of losing the fortune if it weren't that I'd lose you also. Chris what are you saying? We'll always be together. Oh darling there's no use pretending. If we're both penniless we can't get married. Oh Chris it wouldn't matter if we were penniless. Really it wouldn't. That's what you say now Blanche but I know better. Oh no. Both of us are too used to luxury to do without it. And listen. If somehow Vivian failed to inherit the fortune it would mean that either you or I would be bound to. In either case we could get married and have our chance for happiness. Yes you're right. Oh I hate her. I hate her. Darling if we want our happiness we've got to fight for it. Chris what are you talking about? If something were to happen to Vivian our worries would be over. Chris you don't mean. Oh no. Darling the happiness of two people is more important than that of one. And we could be so happy together. I can't bear the thought of giving you up. Oh Chris. But murder would be caught. Caught if we're clever darling. Now listen this afternoon suggest to Vivian that the two of you take the canoe and paddle to the other end of the lake. When you get about a mile from shore you'll see me approaching in the motorboat. That will be the moment for you to tip the canoe over. Tip the canoe over? Yes. Then I'll pick you up and bring you back to the dock. As for Vivian it was a simple case of drowning. By the time I reached the overturned canoe she had gone under. You were the only survivor. Oh Chris I'm so frightened. Well will you do it? Yes. I'll do it. If you want me to. Are you tired paddling Blanche? No Vivian. The lake is certainly deserted today isn't it? No it is this time of the year. Oh but that water is cold. I hear a motorboat. Oh look it's Chris. He's coming after us. Hello you two. Who wants a lift? Let's just ignore him Vivian. All right. We'll pretend he isn't there. He expects us to admit we're tired. Shall we change places? I'm tired of paddling in the stern. All right if you like. But be careful these canoes tip very easily. Yes I know. Now you work your way slowly toward the stern while I make for the bow. Okay. Now we have to slide past each other. This is a tricky part changing places in a canoe. Blanche look out you're rocking the canoe. Oh I can't help it. Look out we're going over. Hey what happened to you two? Chris. Chris pick me up. Swim over here and I'll help you under the boat. Chris. Where are you? Here I am Vivian. Chris it's 30 yards to the boat. I can't swim that far. Chris get me up. My clothes are dragging me under. Wait until the boat and I'll pick you up. Chris don't let me drown. Chris. Chris. It's only another 20 yards Blanche. Chris my clothes they're so heavy. I'm getting so tired. Just a few more yards darling. A few more yards. I couldn't swim beyond that. My life depended on it. I'm afraid you may have to darling. Chris. Chris come back. Chris don't let me drown. Chris. Hello Granny. How are you? Have the police left yet? Yes Granny. They asked me to convey their condolences over the tragic loss of your granddaughters. Oh it was just one of those unfortunate accidents. Yes wasn't it. It's a pity you weren't able to get there in time to save them Chris. I shall never forgive myself for that Granny. I'm sure you won't. Well Mr Arnold is waiting to see me about drawing up my will and naming my heir. But I no longer seem to have a choice in the matter. I must give you credit Chris. You worked the whole thing out like a master. Why Granny. Whatever are you talking about? You may have fooled Blanche and Vivian and the police to boot. But not me Chris. What do you mean? Chris do you remember when the thought first occurred to you that with Blanche and Vivian gone you wouldn't have had it all? Why Granny? It was when you met your cousins for the first time in this room. The thought occurred to you because I said it's a pity there isn't only one of you. Then I wouldn't have to bother deciding who should inherit the fortune. Come to think of it I do recall you saying something to that effect. And when I did your head came up and you stared at the two women and then you smiled and I knew exactly what you were going to do. Of course this is all nonsense but if you say you knew what I was going to do why didn't you stop me? Because I wanted to see happen what did happen. But if you wanted me to inherit the fortune why didn't you promise to leave it to me in your will without... Without forcing you to do what you did? Yes. My dear Chris for reasons of my own I wanted it to be quite impossible for those two vicious stupid women to inherit my money and equally impossible for you. Well whether you want me to inherit the fortune or not I'm going to. Are you? Yes. Under grandfather's will there's no way you can prevent me from inheriting it. It's mine come what may. Oh is it? Yes. What are you laughing at? You fool. There isn't any fortune. What are you saying? There are millions. There's nothing. Absolutely nothing. Everything your grandfather left was lost in the depression. No that can't be. You're lying. Lying am I? I've been paying the servants my doctor bills and other expenses by selling what few pieces of jewelry I had left. I have nothing now. Nothing. No. In fact I shouldn't even be surprised if you had to pay my funeral expenses. You witch. You planned this all from beginning to end. Getting the three of us here. Speaking of leaving the fortune to one of us. Driving me on to drown the two of them. Yes. That's right. And I can't recall ever having had so much fun in all my life. Well you won't be having it much longer. You made a mistake in playing me for the fool. I don't think so. You did exactly as I knew you would. Everything I expected came about. It did did it. Did you expect this also? You didn't expect this did you? Well why don't you laugh now. You'll never play anybody else for a fool. Mrs Drake is anything wrong? I thought I heard. Good heavens. Mr Drake let go of her. Let go dear here. Let's go. This is the only thing she didn't count on. Let go of her. There. You can have her. She'll never play another little game like that. Mrs Drake. Mrs Drake. She's dead. No more than she deserved. Chris what did you do it for? Murdering a helpless old woman. It's madness. Helpless was she? Why she tricked me into believing she had a fortune. Tricked me into killing to get it. What are you talking about? She tricked you into believing she had a fortune. She does have a fortune. You're lying. She said there wasn't a cent of the fortune left. You must have misunderstood her. She's worth at least eight million dollars. And with the death of your cousins you were the sole heir to it. Eight million dollars? But Chris no matter what you do now that fortune can never be yours. I saw you kill your grandmother and under the law no murderer can inherit anything from his victim. And she planned this too. She always said she didn't want me to have her money. And she fixed its ways so it would all go to charity. But I'll show her. I'll show her. It's mine do you hear? Mine. Mine. Mine. Mine. So in the end old Mrs Drake defeated her three greedy grandchildren after all. But what a strange way to disinherit anybody. It looks as if murder ran in the family doesn't it? But the sound of the great gong tells me it's time to close the sealed book again. One moment keeper of the book. What story will you tell us next time? Next time? Would you prefer a murder or a tale of the supernatural? Remember I have all the stories that ever happened here and all that have yet to come to pass. But I'll find one for you in just a moment. And now keeper of the book. Have you found the tale you'll tell next time? Yes. Yes I found one. It's the story about a girl who goes to live on an island. A very strange island where the dead walk by night. And she's a little girl. She's a little girl. And she's a little girl. She's a little girl. And she's a little girl who goes to live on an island. A very strange island where the dead walk by night. And weird voices sound in the wind. I call the story Devil Island. Be sure to be with us again next time. The sound of the great gong heralds another strange and exciting story from... The Sealed Book. The Sealed Book written by Bob Arthur and David Cogan is produced and directed by Jock McGregor.

In World War II, Herbert Blakely (Reginald Owen), on night lookout near a coastal British town, dreams about bombs falling on his wife, and she dreams of German commandos attacking his outpost. They both awaken in time to be saved as the double dream proves true. THE HORROR STREAM LIVE https://horrorstream.cloudaccess.host/index.php

The sealed book. Once again the keeper of the book is ready to open the ponderous volume in which is recorded all the secrets and mysteries of mankind through the ages. All the strange and mystifying stories of the past, present and the future. The book. Keeper of the book, what tale will you tell us this time? What tale shall I tell you? I have here tales of every kind. Tales of murder, of madness, of dark deeds and events strange beyond all belief. Let me see. Yes, here's a tale for you. A tale of a man who stole by force the secret of immortality, of life everlasting and entered into a mad adventure. The title of the tale is King of the World. Here is the tale as it is written in the sealed book. It is late at night and the wind howls over the desolate countryside. In the darkness a man runs frantically through the woods trying to elude his pursuers. I've got to shake him or it'll meet a ten year stretch. Stop or I'll shoot. That's twice they got me in the same arm. Here's a house with a light in it. My only chance. If I stick to these trees they won't be able to see me. I'm almost there. Here's a door. If it's only unlocked. It is. Good evening. Now listen. Listen close. A couple of guards from the Horton estate are after me. I'll be behind this door covering you with a rod so you haven't seen me. You understand? I understand. That must be them. Remember any tricks and I'll start blasting. I have no intention of being foolish. Okay, go ahead then. Open the door. Yes, what is it? There's been an attempted theft of the Horton diamond sir. We chased the crook this way. Have you seen anything of him? I know. There hasn't been anyone here tonight. We'll keep on going. Good night. They're gone now. You did all right. I'm glad you're satisfied. What kind of a place is this? All those machines, bottles and things. This is my laboratory. What are you, a professor? Yes, you. Hey, what's that? Your nerves are on edge. It's only my great day in Caesar. Come in Caesar. We have a visitor. Hey, what's he growling at me for? I'm sorry. He always growls at strangers. I don't like him coming towards me that way. Keep him away, will you? Come here Caesar. He won't listen to you. He's gonna spring. Well this will stop him. Get him off. Take him away will you? Here Caesar. Here. Stop it I say. Stop it. That's better. I think I'd better put the chain on you Caesar. Did he hurt you? Look, I put three slugs into that dog. Why isn't he dead? He isn't even wounded. You must have missed. You say I missed him, do you? I won't miss him this time. I suppose I missed him that time, eh? Why isn't he dead? Well the truth is, in this laboratory I've created a serum that has the power to defeat death. I call it serum L. L for life. You mean the stuff protects you from a bullet or a knife wound? In a way, yes. Swifter than the eye can see. It heals all wounds. The damage is repaired in a fraction of a second. My serum is what protected Caesar. A shot of that stuff and you can't be killed. It sounds screwy but that dog, four slugs and not a mark on him. Look professor, I'm going to make a deal with you. A deal? Yeah. I'll let you keep on living if you'll give me a shot of that serum. But that's impossible. It hasn't been perfected. What do you mean it hasn't been perfected? It saved the dog didn't it? Yes of course but I'm still in the experimental stage. I don't know how long the serum is effective or the condition in which it leaves the body after it has worn off. You're wasting time professor. I'd hate to have to persuade you. I see. Do you understand the responsibility is all yours? It's all right professor. You let me do the worrying. Now come on let's have a shot of that stuff. Very well. If you roll up your sleeve. Sure. And don't try pulling a fast one professor. It won't be healthy. May I ask why you're so anxious to have my serum? Any guy in my racket who can take a slug and not feel it would be top man. I see. Just hold still a moment. All right go ahead. That's all. Hey my wounds. They're gone. Why there isn't even a mark on my arm to show where they were. I told you it healed faster than the eye could see. Yeah. It's like a miracle. Think of it. I can't be killed. Nothing can stop me now. I can move in on all the rackets and take them all over. Yes sir I'll be king of the world. Hello Duke. What do you want to see me about? I'm kind of busy. I won't take up much of your time. I'm after a job. I'd like to give you one but I have a room for another man. You're wrong. There's one job in your racket that's going to be open soon. Yours. Mine? Yeah. Duke you've got a funny sense of humor. Yeah I know. But this is one time I'm not kidding. You better be kidding or it might not be healthy for you. I don't have to worry about my health anymore. You'd better go while I go and it's good. I like it here. You're the one who's leaving. Right now. You haven't got a gun Duke. The boys saw to that. And I have. You're a little nervous aren't you Williams? Stay where you are. I'll let you have it. I don't scare easily. Not anymore. You ask first. Couldn't have missed. I won't this time. Don't seem to be able to stop me Williams. I shot you. I tell you I shot you. Why did you fall? Oh it can't be. I put six bullets into you. Why did you fall? Your gun is empty now Williams. It's just you and me. No Duke don't. I'll do anything you say. Stay away please. Too bad Williams. You should have resigned when I gave you the chance. But you would be stubborn. That's what they'll all get if they stand in my way. Hello Mike. Come on in. I'm just totaling up the take for last month. Gonna be quite a haul. Duke you're headed for trouble. You've been expanding too fast. Stepping on too many people's toes. They don't want to get stepped on. They better stay out of my road. They tried to bump me off a half a dozen times in the past month. And I'm still alive. Duke what is it that keeps you up even after they put a dozen slugs into you? Your job is to carry out my orders not to ask questions. Oh I didn't mean anything by it. I hope you didn't. Now look I want you to pick up a fast car. We're going after the Horton Diamond tonight. The Horton Diamond? Yeah. Duke that's suicide. We're cleaning up right here. Why risk our necks on a dangerous job? Because I want the Horton Stone. The way I got it figured we can't miss. Remember their guns can't stop me. Hey is 70 the best you can get out of this car? I got my foot down to the floor now. Hey look at that diamond Mike. Isn't that a beauty? Think of it. I got a half a million bucks right in my hand. Yeah a lot of good it's gonna do us if we don't shake that police car. Yeah you're right they're hanging on. We got a chance to get out of here. We got a chance to get out of here. We got a chance to get out of here. We got a chance to get out of here. There's nothing more I can do. I'm pushing this crate as fast as it'll go. All right, look out for this curve. We're taking it too fast. Hey, I can't control it. Look out! We're going over it! Wheeeeeeee! Look at that car, will you? They must have been doing all of 70 when they crashed. Yeah, they'll sure have a hard time identifying this guy behind the wheel. What a mess. What about the other guy? Let's have a look. Say, there isn't a mark on him. He's unconscious, but he doesn't appear to be hurt at all. But he must be, after a crash like this. Take a look for yourself. I tell you, this guy is gonna live. Oh, a lot of good it'll do him. After killing two guards at the Horton estate, he's headed to the electric chair. The electric chair. And now, to go on with the story of the King of the World, as it is written here in the sealed book. Duke Farson, having been duly tried and sentenced for the murders he committed, is being strapped into the electric chair. Ha ha ha. Warden, you're wasting your time. This isn't the last mile for me. I'm one guy you can't fry. All right, Richards, we can proceed now. Will you examine the body, Doctor? Sorry to disappoint you, Warden, but I'm not dead. But you must be. No man has ever lived through it. I'm not like other men, Warden. You can't kill me. Richards, unstrap the prisoner from the chair. What's happened must be due to a mechanical defect. That must be it. You look a little pale, Warden. It's good to get out of that chair. It's not very comfortable. Why are you all backing away from me? You afraid I'll hurt you? I'll just take this gun. That's better now. All right, Warden, start marching. You're going to lead me to freedom. If you want to live. Duke. Let me in, Joe. Wait. That's better. You look as though you'd seen a ghost, Joe. The papers are full of stories about your escape. They say the juice was turned on, and yet when it was over you got up and walked away. Yeah. Yeah, that's right. I told them I was one guy too big to be killed. Look, Duke, I can't afford any trouble with the cops. You know I'm a three-time loser. Shut up. I'm still giving orders. You'll do as I say. The cops can only send you up for life. I can do worse. Don't talk like that. Duke, you know you can count on me. I'll do anything you say. Yeah, you'd better. I'm going to hold up here for a couple of weeks until the heat's off. Meanwhile, I'm going to make plans, big plans. I'm bigger than just being the king of the underworld. If I organize things right, there's no reason I can't use the underworld to take over the rest of the world. Yeah, that would make me king of the world. Wouldn't be hard to either. Why is that clock so loud? I can't even hear myself talk. What clock? There isn't any in this apartment. Are you deaf? Can't you hear it? No, Duke, honest. I don't hear a thing. You must be imagining things. I don't know. I don't hear it so loud now either. Yeah, I guess maybe it was my imagination. Yet I could have sworn. Well, never mind. I got other things to think of. Big things. Why don't you sit down, Duke, and take it easy? I'm tired of sitting. Three weeks in this rat trap is enough for anyone. I've had about enough. The heat's on as big as ever, Duke. And if I saw them, I'm as anxious to get anyone. Every time I go out, I expect some dick to trail me back to this high ground. Suppose you let me do the worrying, huh? Sure, sure. I was only talking. Have you been having any more of those attacks lately? I'm okay. Stop talking about it. It's bad enough without having to be reminded about it. I don't want to hear... Hey, what's that? What, Duke? That buzzing sound. Keeps growing louder and louder. I don't hear nothing. Listen, you must hear it. It's a fly. Yeah, and it's getting louder. I tell you, I can't stand it. A fly? Yeah. I don't hear it. Wait, there's one over there flying around us. Crank. Well, do something, will you? I can't stand the noise. It's driving me crazy. Take it easy, Duke. Do your best. Wait, tell it. There. Oh, thanks, Joe. It's gone now. For a while I thought I'd blow my top. Maybe you'd better see a doctor, Duke. You've been getting these attacks more and more these past three weeks. No doctor can do me any good. There's only one man that can help me. Who's that? That's the professor. You remember me, don't you, Professor? Yes, of course. I've been reading quite a bit about you in the papers lately, Mr. Farsall. Your serum was all right, Professor. It saved me from being an electrocutor, but I don't know, these last three weeks something's happened and I don't like it. Suppose you tell me about it. I keep getting attacks. Maybe I'm listening to the radio. Everything's fine. Then all of a sudden it grows louder as though someone was turning it on full blast. It pounds on my head until I think I'm going crazy. Professor, I can't stand it. You've got to help me. You recall that when you asked for my serum I told you it hadn't been perfected? That I didn't know what effect it would have on the human body? Yeah, yeah, I know, but you've got to help me now. I can't go on this way. I keep waiting for the next attack. Each one is worse than the last. You remember my Great Dane Caesar, don't you? Sure. He tried to take a piece out of my throat, didn't he? I'll open this trap door. You can see him in the cellar. There he is, Mr. Farson. Well, what's wrong with him? Why does he keep whining like that? Caesar too received an injection of the serum, Mr. Farson, six months before you received yours. Now every sound he hears is a hundredfold greater. I'm speaking to you in normal tone of voice, yet to Caesar I'm shouting unbearably loud. You mean that... Caesar has passed into a condition where every sound is sheer torment. To be quite frank, he went insane three months ago. Oh. Well, why don't you kill him? Put him out of his misery. You forget, Mr. Farson, that the serum still protects him from death. He can't die. And is that... is that what will happen to me in a few months? Yes, I'm sorry to say. But, Professor, there must be something you can do. Maybe you got another serum. Huh? Anything. I've got money. I'm sorry, but it isn't a question of money. I can offer you no help. I can't go on this way, waiting for each new attack. And then in the end, if only there was an end, if only I could die. Possibly there is a way out. There is? Tell me. I'll do anything. Well, as you know, my serum can prevent death from a dozen bullet wounds. But there might be one way its great healing powers could be defeated. Yeah, which way is that? If you were to use an explosive, a powerful explosive, you might blow yourself up into so many pieces that the serum would no longer be able to defeat death. Yeah. Yeah, I see what you mean. One of the mob once had an accident with Nitro. They never found a trace of him. Yeah. Yeah, Nitro. That would do the trick. Yes, quite possibly. If the attacks continue and they're beyond endurance, it may be your one way of escape. My one way of escape? Once I thought that with your serum, I'd come to rule the world. Now I'm looking for a way out of it. Oh, it's you, Duke. Yeah. You expecting someone else? No, no, of course not. What are you so jittery about? For me? Yeah. I'm okay. What'd the guy you went to see say? He can't help me. No one can. What are you going to do, Duke? There's nothing I can do but wait. Maybe, maybe he was wrong. Maybe I won't get them attacks anymore. After all, just because it happened to the dog doesn't mean that... Hey, what's that? That steady pounding? It's growing louder and louder. Must be another attack. I can't stand it. It keeps pounding, pounding, louder and louder. Maybe it's the faucet in the kitchen that's been leaking lately. I'll have a look at it. I can't go on this way. I can't. It's gone now, but there'll be another attack and then another. The faucet was leaking. I just turned it off. Was that what was troubling you, Duke? Yeah. It's no use. I can't go on this way, waiting for it to happen all the time and then ending up like that dog. Never mind. Get out the car. We're going on a little trip. Trip? Yeah. Where to, Duke? Upstate to the old hideout. I'm going to try to take the one way out. Duke, won't you tell me what we come to this old place for? You'll see. Come on. What are you looking around for? Nothing. Nothing at all. Have you got the shovel? Yeah. Won't you at least tell me what we need the shovel for? You're going to do some digging for me in the cellar. Is there something buried in the cellar? Yeah. Nitro. All right. Here's the cellar door. Nitro. You mean that's what's buried down there? Yeah. We stored it here for safe cracking jobs. Now I got a better use for it. You're going to get me to dig it up and be suicide. You saved this gun, don't you, Joe? You haven't much choice. Now start down those steps. But I can't see. It's pitch dark down there. That's okay. Just fail your way down the steps. We get to the bottom. I'll light a candle. Duke, please don't make me. Keep going. Duke, that was the bottom step. What about lighting a match? Okay. Just a second. I've got one here. Grab him, Ross. I got his gun. I got him. Let go of me. I got to reach that nitro. Let go. Get him, coppers. Get him or he'll blow us all out. You rascal. You squeal on me. Pour the light on him, Jordan. I got him. You've got to let me get to the nitro. It's the only way I can die. He's as crazy as a loan. Yeah. A place for this guy's in a padded cell. All right, Farson, in you go. There. You won't be able to hurt yourself in that nice padded cell. And you won't be able to hear any of those loud noises again either. No, no, no noises. There aren't any radios or watches or automobile horns that can bother you in that cell. It's guaranteed a hundred percent soundproof. Now be a good boy. You've got to let me go. I want to die. Do you hear? You can't let me live and suffer these attacks. Let me out of here. Let me out. Do you hear? I can't stand. It's starting again. Another attack. It's growing louder and louder. A steady pound. It's my heart beating. Growing louder and louder. I can't stop it. I can't stop it. I can't stop it. And that is the story of the King of the World as it is written in the sealed book. Years have passed, but Duke Ferguson is still locked up in the padded cell. Day and night he begs to be executed. And yet at the same moment he knows he can't die. That the serum in his blood has given him immortality and sentenced him to a life filled with torturous sounds from which there is no escape. There is no escape. It is so written here in the sealed book. But the sound of the great gong tells me I must close the great book once again. One moment, keeper of the book. What story from the sealed book will you tell us next time? Next time? What shall it be? A tale of madness? Of terror? Of dark deeds in far lands? Or I have them here? All the stories that ever happened and many that have yet to come to pass. But I'll find one for you in just a moment. And now, keeper of the book, have you found the story you'll tell next time? Yes, yes I found one. It's a story about a ruthless man who put money above all and wouldn't stop at murder to achieve his ends. The title of the tale is Death Spins a Web. Be sure to be with us again next time when the great gong heralds another strange and exciting story from... The sealed book. The sealed book written by Bob Arthur and David Cogan is produced and directed by Jock McGregor.

Carl Archer (Charles Aidman), a recovering alcoholic travels to Nevada to reconcile with his wife, Helen (Julie Adams). She and son Stevie visit a nearby silver mine when the mine collapses. Helen dies and her ghost leads Carl and others to rescue Stevie. THE HORROR STREAM LIVE https://horrorstream.cloudaccess.host/index.php

The Sare Book. Once again the keeper of the book is ready to unlock the ponderous volume in which is recorded all the secrets and mysteries of mankind through the ages. All the lore and learning of the ancients. All the strange and mystifying stories of the past, the present, and the future. Keeper of the book, what tale will you tell us this time? First, I must unlock the great padlock which keeps the sealed book safe from praying eyes. Now, what story shall I tell you? I have here tales of every kind. Tales of murder, of madness, of dark deeds, and of events strange beyond all belief. Here's a tale for you. A dark story of two brothers. One of them killed because he could not help himself. The other one was interested in murder too, but in a very different way. The title of the tale is The Hands of Death. Here is the tale as it is written in the sealed book. It began in San Francisco on a night of thick suffocating fog. A young man hurrying homeward turns a corner and bumps abruptly into a huge figure striding toward him. Oh, excuse me. Fog is so thick I didn't see you. It's all right. Tell me, do you live here? Here in San Francisco? Why, well yes I do. Do you know where Edward Morlock lives now? Why, no I, no I never heard of him. Now if you'll excuse me. Wait. But I've really got to get home. I just want a light from your cigarette. Oh, of course. Here, I'll hold it for you. Just hold it like that. What is it? What's the matter? Nothing. It's nothing. It's my hands, isn't it? They frightened you. No, no it's, it's nothing. My hands, they disgusted you. No, no of course not. They frightened you because they're not like other people's hands. No, no, let go of me. Are you sure you that? I thought I was a freak. Let go of me. You're crazy. I'm not crazy, do you hear? I'll show you. No, no. I'll show you. So, the Phantom Strangler is at work in San Francisco. Jennings will be interested in that. Oh, yes, Jennings? The postman just brought this package, sir. Oh, package, eh? Give it to me. Yes, sir. Now wheel me over to the window. Of course, sir. This is close enough, Jennings. This package, I suppose you noticed it came from my agent in New York. Yes, sir, I did. Then perhaps you can guess what's in it, eh, Jennings? No, sir, but I have no doubt it's another nice addition to your collection of objects having to do with famous murders, sir. Yes, indeed, a nice addition. But speaking of murders, have you seen this morning's San Francisco paper yet? No, sir. Well, look at these headlines. Read them out loud. Playboy murdered in fog. Phantom Strangler breaks victim's neck. Then he's back. Your brother Kane is back. Yes, back in San Francisco looking for me. And he'll keep looking for you. And if he finds you, he'll kill you. Yes, he's dedicated his life to that purpose. And all because he feels I cheated him out of his share of the money our father left us. Oh, it's a great pity. Yes, sir. Of course, we know the truth. Quite so. As you say, we know the truth. However, I hardly think Kane will find me here. No, sir. So we'll forget about him. Jennings, tomorrow afternoon a neighbor is dropping in for tea. A neighbor, sir? Yes, Inspector Tennant, the head of the local police force. He's coming to view my little collection. Of course, sir. He may bring a friend with him. So have plenty of everything. Yes, sir. Well, that's all. What are you waiting for? Excuse me, sir. I I wanted to speak to you about this check you gave me yesterday for my month's salary. Well, what about it? It's for the usual 500, isn't it? Yes, sir. But you see, Mr. Morlock, I've been thinking in these times I ought to have more. More? Just how much do you consider your services worth, Jennings? Shall we say a thousand a month? A thousand a month? It's quite reasonable, I think. After all, if I were to tell the authorities all I know about your father's will and how it happened that the entire fortune came to you and none to Kane. Never mind, Jennings. I'll make out another check. Thank you, sir. But be careful you don't drive me too far or you may regret it. Oh, I think I'll be safe enough, Mr. Morlock. After all, confined to that wheelchair as you are, you need me. That's enough. I'll get your check later. Yes, sir. Very good, Mr. Morlock. So you're getting greedy, are you, Jennings? I must find some way to discourage you. Yes, some way to discourage you. The next afternoon, Edward Morlock, the strange crippled collector of murder relics, enjoyed himself thoroughly playing host to police inspector Tennant and Mr. Norman Smith, the criminologist friend of his. He began by showing them his latest acquisition, the one that had come by mail just the day before. And now, gentlemen, look. A cashmere shawl? Yes, but no ordinary cashmere shawl. Until last month, it was owned by two very old sisters who lived in a dingy house in Baltimore. In Baltimore? Yes. You mean that's the shawl? Exactly, gentlemen. That's the shawl with which the two old ladies were strangled by a sneak thief. Well, I'll be darned. It's a prize worthy even of my collection, which is, I flatter myself, the most complete of its kind ever assembled. Funny hobby, I'd call it. Every man to his taste, Inspector. Murder is your business, but it's my hobby. Now, if you just pull back those curtains there, the rest of my collection is on the shelves behind them. These curtains? That's right. Well, I'll be jittery. This is most interesting, Mr. Morlock. Yes, I knew you'd think so. Look there on the wall, an authentic headsman's axe. It was used in the brutal murder of the Baron de Morley, an ancestor of mine in the 15th century. And right there below it is the blood-stained dress sworn by one of the victims of Jack the Ripper. And on the next shelf, you see... And so there, gentlemen, you have the highlights of my collection. How do you like them? Well, that's the sort of thing you're interested in. I'll say your collection does seem complete. It is, indeed. In fact, there's really nothing missing except perhaps a murderer and a victim. What did you say? That the only thing missing from your collection is a murderer and a victim. The most interesting thought, Mr. Smith. And after all, why not? Why not what? Oh, excuse me, Inspector, I was just thinking out loud. Oh. Well, I'm afraid we got to go now, Morlock. Ain't, Smith? Yes, you're right, Inspector. It's been a great pleasure having you, gentlemen. And I do hope you'll call again. Yes, Mr. Morlock, you rang? Yes, Jennings, before you help me to bed, I want you to mail these letters. Yes, sir. They are to major newspapers in San Francisco and contain a message to be inserted in their personal columns. A message? Yes, to my brother, Kane. We used to communicate this way in the past. But, uh, what? Here is a copy of the message. You may read it. If the gentleman with the unusual hands will visit his brother in Santa Villa, he will learn something to his advantage. You're inviting him here? Exactly. You've decided to play safe, to trap him and turn him over to the police? Oh, that's clever of you, Jennings. Yes, very clever. But you've already proved you're clever, haven't you? Now just take these letters out and mail them. And soon, quite soon, I think, we shall be seeing my dear brother Kane again. And now for the rest of my story. The hands of death, as it had written in the sealed book. After Edward Morlock had put into effect his plan to bring his brother Kane to him, he sat in his wheelchair and waited, seeming much amused at some secret thought of his own. One day passed, then two, then three, and then the newspapers carried strange new headlines. Extra! Read all about it! Phantom Strangler in Los Angeles! Extra! Read all about it! So brother Kane was in Los Angeles last night, Jennings. He's getting closer. I shouldn't be surprised if he arrived here tonight. I don't like it. Oh, nonsense, Jennings. You know you've got nothing to fear from Kane, unless of course you're so careless as to make some remark about his hands. I know, but he intends to kill you. I think I'll be able to control him. I want you to bring me a glass of milk. Kane is very fond of milk. Glass of milk? With a triple dose of sleeping powder in it. But I don't understand. Never mind, just do as I say. What's that? I imagine that's Kane now. Kane? Here already? Quick, I'll let him in. You get that glass of milk ready and bring it in when I ring. Yes, sir. When you ring, sir. Oh, come in, Kane. I've unlocked the window. Yes, I'll come in, Edward, now that I've found you at last. Well, I'd hardly say you found me, Kane. I sent for you. It's the same thing. Now, I'm where I can put my hands around your throat at last. I'm going to kill you. Do you hear? Kill you. Kane, sit down. Sit down. I want to talk to you. All right, I'll sit down. You can't change my mind. Tell me, Kane, how many people have you killed since you got out of the penitentiary? Seven. Seven murders? They looked at my hands. They were disgusted. I didn't kill them. My hands did. You hear? I didn't want to kill them, but my hands killed them anyway. Why, of course I understand. Your hands, your great-grandfather had hands like yours, you know, Kane. Don't talk about it anymore. Of course not, Kane. But you must be hungry. I'll ring for Jennings. He'll fix something for you. Yes, I am hungry. But please, Kane, don't startle the poor fellow. You know, he's very much afraid of you. Why? Why is he afraid of me? It's your hands. He says they give him nightmares. My hands give him nightmares? You mustn't blame him, Kane. He can't help it. My hands give him nightmares. Yes, sir. I brought you a glass of milk, Mr. Moorlach. My hands frighten me. Oh, thank you, Jennings. Just put it down here. Yes, sir. Why are you looking at me like that, Jennings? I'm not looking at you, Mr. Kane. You're looking at my hands. They upset you. They give you nightmares. No, no, no, Mr. Kane, that's not true. I'll show you. I'll give you a reason to be afraid of my hands. Mr. Moorlach, help me. I'll show you. I'll show you. No, you're kidding. Help. Oh, there. That'll teach you to be afraid of my hands. You can let him go now, Kane. He's dead. My hands. They've killed again. Yes, he's dead. Oh, you've been very wicked, Kane. I didn't want to kill him. My hands did it. My hands, you hear? You must be quiet now, Kane. You must rest. I didn't want to kill him. Here, drink this milk, then lie down and rest for a while. We'll talk some more in the morning. All right. I'll drink it. I'll take care of everything. That's right, Kane. Lie back and sleep. Sleep soundly. So you would blackmail me, would you, Jennings? And you would kill me, would you, Kane? But I've been too clever for both of you. Hello. Hello, police headquarters. Connect me with Inspector Tennant, please. I want to report a murder. And so there you are, Inspector. Kane was in the penitentiary for assault with intent to kill. Apparently, he escaped since then. He's been seeking for me, meaning to kill me. Good heavens, more luck. Then he's the strangler who's been doing all these killings. Yes, I'm afraid so. Oh, and I never guessed until he showed up tonight to kill me, because he thought, you see, quite wrongly, that I had cheated him of his inheritance. Jennings bravely came to my rescue and Kane throttled him. Then I tricked Kane into drinking some drugged milk and, well, there you are. But why, you man? Why? Why did he kill all these people? Because of his hands. His hands? Well, you saw his hands. Tremendously strong. Not hands at all, really, but more like demon's claws. Kane is morbidly sensitive about his deformity. When he feels someone is frightened by his hands, he kills them just like that. It's a good thing we got him at last. You can take him along now quite safely, but be sure to keep him well locked up, Inspector, and don't let anyone get within reach of his hands. A few weeks later, Kane Moorlach entered the lethal chamber of the state penitentiary. Edward Moorlach, the condemned man's invalid brother, was one of the few spectators. Kane Moorlach, with his last breath, cursed his brother and swore that someday he would be avenged. Then he died. The following day, Inspector Tennant and his friend Norman Smith paid Edward Moorlach another visit. Oh, good evening, Inspector and Mr. Smith. It's very kind of you to stop by tonight. We dropped in to see how you were making out, Mr. Moorlach. Thought maybe, what with your trip yesterday and the shock that perhaps you might be... No, no, no, no, no, I'm quite all right, thank you. What must be must be. You see, I am a philosopher. You have somebody looking after you? Yes, Philippe, a Filipino boy, is taking poor Jennings place. Oh, and gentlemen, that reminds me. I have something here that will interest you. Something that'll interest us? Yes, here on the table beside me, this jar. Oh, a burial urn, isn't it, Mr. Moorlach? Exactly, and in this burial urn are the ashes of poor murdered Jennings. Jennings ashes? Yes. You mean you're going to keep them with you? Oh, of course, gentlemen. I was very fond of Jennings, very fond. What more fitting than that I should keep his ashes to remind me of his years of faithful service. Besides, well, I can always look upon them as part of my little collection. Your collection? Yes, Inspector. It was Mr. Smith here who pointed out that complete as it was, it lacked both a murderer and his victim. Well, here are the ashes of the victim. Great heavens. That's rather a unique item, Mr. Moorlach. Yes, indeed, an item any collector would be proud of. But the really choice addition to my collection is here in this box which just arrived. Would you care to look at it, gentlemen? What in the world? Well, I'm not an maiden guess. I'll lift the lid and see. Merciful heavens, a pair of hands. The hands of your brother Kane. Exactly. I can't believe it. But what is so strange about it, gentlemen, there are the ashes of a murdered victim. Here are the unique and terrible hands that throttled him. Where in all the world will you find a collector who can boast such items as these? You must be mad. Moorlach, did you plan all this from beginning to end? Plan it, Mr. Smith. But how could I? You're quite mad. We could never prove it. You could prove nothing. Nothing. Inspector, I think we'd better go. Yes. Come on, let's get out of here before I do something I'd regret. Call again any time, gentlemen. You'd be upset, weren't they, Kane? Upset by your hands, your great, strong hands that are going to become the prize items of my little collection, the distorted hands of a murderer. Oh, how cold they are. And yet I can almost feel the murderer strengthen them still. You wanted so badly to close your hands about my throat, didn't you, Kane? But it's too late now. You're dead. And your hands are dead, too. Lifeless. Would you like to see how your hands look at my throat here? I'll place them there for you. See how nicely they fit around my neck. Just as if they... No. No. Let go of me. Your hands. They're choking me. I can't breathe. I... Morlock, what is it? Where are you? Inspector, look. They're on the floor. Good Lord. It's Morlock. No. No, it can't be. His brother's hands had clutched around his throat. They've strangled him. And that is the story of the hands of death as it is written in the sealed book. Edward Morlock was quite dead when they found him with his brother's severed hands about his throat. But they called his death heart failure. For who would believe that two dead hands by themselves could wreak the vengeance that Kane Morlock swore to have before he died? And perhaps it was heart failure. Perhaps Edward Morlock, thinking he felt the hands move, died of sheer terror. You'll have to decide for yourself which is true. The answer is not written here. But the sound of the great gong tells me I must lock the book once again. One moment, keeper of the book. What story from the sealed book will you tell us next time? Next time? Are you sure you want to know? Perhaps my next story will be about you. For I have here all the stories that ever happened and many that have not yet come to pass. But I'll find one for you in just a moment. And now, keeper of the book, have you found the story that you'll tell us next time? Yes, yes, I found one. It's a story about a man who found the secret of immortality, of life everlasting, and how he tried to use it to make himself master of the earth. The title of the tale is The King of the World. Be sure to be with us again next time when the great gong heralds another strange and exciting story from the sealed book. The sealed book written by Bob Arthur and David Kogan is produced and directed by John McGregor.

The Fall of the House of Usher – An Ambitious and Engrossing Distillation of Poe’s Work [Horror Obsessive] From what I’ve seen of Mike Flanagan’s output (chiefly Doctor Sleep and The Haunting of Hill House), I’ve admired it greatly. He’s able to ground his horror in quite relatable and emotional themes. This varies from his depiction of a dysfunctional family that’s haunted by trauma in Hill House to the blurred line between Danny Torrance’s alcoholism and supernatural abilities in the Shining sequel. With his Netflix adaptation of The Fall of the House of Usher, Flanagan has created an ambitious and engrossing distillation of Poe’s work. https://horrorobsessive.com/2023/10/28/the-fall-of-the-house-of-usher-an-ambitious-and-engrossing-distillation-of-poes-work/ THE HORROR STREAM LIVE http://www.thehorrorstreamlive.com/index.php

Must See Streaming TV Project Insight (1960-1985) [Made for TV Mayhem] If you follow any of my social media, you've probably seen my recent posts on TV movies streaming on Amazon Prime. I have found a gazillion amazing TVMs and the feedback on my posts has been quite positive, so I'm extending this project to cover an intriguing syndicated religious television series called Insight. I've been interested in Insight for some time now, and actually did a bit of research on it many years ago, in the hopes I could write something about it. Unfortunately, that research and time have slipped away from me. But recently, I noticed that episodes began appearing on YouTube, in what looks like legal channels. https://madefortvmayhem.blogspot.com/2019/04/must-see-streaming-tv-project-insight.html THE HORROR STREAM LIVE http://www.TheHorrorStreamLive.com/

8 of the Best Christmas-Themed Episodes of Horror Television [Bloody Disgusting] Christmas is the time of year that everyone gathers around the TV and partakes in wacky Christmas capers or sickly-sweet Christmas romance (I think some people worship and spend time with loved ones, but I was raised Jewish. We went to the movies and watched TV). Personally, I never got into Christmas movies (probably the aforementioned Jewish thing), but it could be because they are all about emotion and not enough killing. To combat that, I have selected some of my top Christmas episodes from horror television! Some may contain a healthy dose of heartwarming capering, but only after a thick coat of Christmas blood… https://bloody-disgusting.com/editorials/3645742/8-best-christmas-themed-episodes-horror-television/ THE HORROR STREAM LIVE http://www.TheHorrorStreamLive.com/

Ranking Every Episode In Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities [Horror Obsessive] Hot take: I am not a huge fan of Guillermo del Toro. His work is not terrible by any means, but there seems to be a disconnect between the ideas in his head and how he projects those images on screen. He is without a doubt a competent director, I just find it difficult to fully enjoy the overwhelming majority of films he creates. The one constant of del Toro I have always enjoyed was his writing. Whether you like him or not you cannot deny he is one hell of a writer and has one messed up brain. When I heard he was creating an anthology series for Netflix I was excited yet trepidatious. When I heard the series was going to be directed by some of the biggest names in horror with del Toro as an executive producer? Well, I was definitely on board. https://horrorobsessive.com/2022/11/10/ranking-every-episode-in-guillermo-del-toros-cabinet-of-curiosities/ THE HORROR STREAM LIVE http://www.TheHorrorStreamLive.com/

Apocalypse TV – 12 Shows That Ended the World [Horror Land] At some point in time, we’ve all wondered what it would be like to survive a global catastrophe that would send us all to hell in a hand basket at the hands of natural disasters, nuclear wars or even global pandemics that would wipe out life as we know it.
