OTR Halloween Day 20: The Philip Morris Playhouse

I previously blogged about the Philip Morris Playhouse in one of my Radio Recap posts. This version of the series ran in 1948-1949 under the stewardship of William Spier, director of Suspense. And although we have only a few surviving episodes, the quality of the series is basically par with that of Suspense!

For instance, in "Leona's Room," Vincent Price stars as a man who commits a murder of passion. While trying to fix his alibi he encounters a vaudeville performer who claims to be a psychic - and seems to know what he's done! You can hear "Leona's Room" at the Internet Archive!
