The Shadow - "Ghosts Can Kill" (Old Time Radio)

from The Shadow | Old Time Radio Hosted by Old Time Retro Radio

From The Shadow, “Ghosts Can Kill” originally aired on January 15, 1939. It is episode 69 of the series (season 2, episode 17), written by Jerry Devine for the Mutual Broadcasting System. Convicted gangster Ralph Gorman vows revenge on the men he holds responsible for his fate—and the eerie sound of his mouth organ soon makes his threat seem frighteningly possible. Lamont Cranston and Margot Lane investigate in this Blue Coal-sponsored mystery, starring Bill Johnstone as The Shadow and Agnes Moorehead as Margot Lane. The Shadow presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
