Boris Karloff Month Day 16: Final Reckoning

Welcome back to Boris Karloff month! In 1944, Boris Karloff was very briefly the star of his own radio horror series, Creeps by Night; perhaps the series took its name from the 1931 ghost story collection gathered under Dashiell Hammett's name? Karloff didn't stay with Creeps by Night for very long but it was a fairly high-quality program - I wish it had been more successful. There are only a handful of existing episodes.

Today I'm looking at "Final Reckoning" from May 2, 1944. In this tale, Karloff is a criminal out for revenge and armed with a razor! You can hear it at archive.org by clicking here!
