Inner Sanctum Halloween Month, day 9 of 31: "The Black Art"

Inner Sanctum Mysteries loved to hint at the supernatural but seldom followed through. All the same, the supernatural menace in many of their stories is a great source of tension and suspense. Such a program is "The Black Art", which was first broadcast May 15, 1945. In this tale, a convict is visited by a woman who claims to have supernatural powers and offers to rescue him from death!

This was the final episode of Inner Sanctum Mysteries to be hosted by Raymond Edward Johnson. Simone Simon stars. You can listen to this episode at archive.org by clicking here.
