Episode 388 - John Dickson Carr (Part 2)

Stars on Suspense (Old Time Radio)

John Dickson Carr - one of the giants of the golden age of mystery fiction - penned dozens of scripts in the early years of Suspense with stories ranging from historical crime drama to international espionage to good old fashioned murders. We'll hear a tale of spies and sorcery in "The Lord of the Witch Doctors" (originally aired on CBS on October 27, 1942) and of a sabotage plot exposed in Madame Toussaud's in "Menace in Wax" (originally aired on CBS on November 17, 1942). Carr takes us back to London in the early 1800s when you could earn a living robbing graves in "The Body Snatchers" (originally aired on CBS on November 24, 1942), and an Italian honeymoon could turn into a funeral in "The Bride Vanishes" (originally aired on CBS on December 1, 1942).
