Inner Sanctum Halloween Month, day 24 of 31: "A Corpse for Halloween"

"A Corpse for Halloween." There's a title to get you in the Halloween spirit! This story concerns a man who once went on a treasure hunt with two other men, then left them to die in the jaws of a tiger. Now, one of the two supposedly dead men has returned, badly disfigured and vowing revenge on his former ally. The marked man must run through streets of costumed Halloween revelers with no idea where the next attempt on his life will be held.

"A Corpse for Halloween" was, appropriately, originally broadcast on October 31st, 1949. This episode was hosted by Paul McGrath and featured Berry Kroeger, Larry Haines and Mercedes McCambridge. You can listen to this episode at archive.org by clicking here.
