Unknown Broadcast | The Corpse Laughs: Stolen Identity, a Blind Uncle and a Half-Million-Dollar Safe
Career criminal Gus Miller steals a dead man’s identity to reach a blind uncle’s safe and the half-million-dollar inheritance inside.
Tom Reed meets Miller on the road and offers him an audacious proposition. Reed must collect money from his estranged uncle Walter at White Oaks, the family’s gloomy Pacific Coast estate, but a bad heart may prevent him from completing the trip. When Reed dies in the car, Miller changes clothes with the corpse and arrives during an electrical storm pretending to be the long-absent heir.
The masquerade appears perfect. Uncle Walter has not seen Tom in years and is blind; the household expects the nephew; and a childhood fiancée named Margaret is due to arrive. Yet White Oaks contains more than one false identity. A blown floor safe, another body, and the old man’s strangely precise movements force Miller to reconsider who is deceiving whom and whether the dead Tom Reed has guided him into a trap.
“The Corpse Laughs” is a vintage crime-horror mystery of greed, impersonation, inheritance, and shifting identities. A jagged coastline, remote mansion, stolen clothes, family fortune, and corpse left by the roadside build toward the discovery that the cleverest thief at White Oaks may not be the man telling the story.

00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:12.720
Ah, I see you found me
once again. Very good. I'm happy
2
00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:16.480
to see you here. Oh what's
that? Oh no, no, no,
3
00:00:16.559 --> 00:00:21.280
not at all, not at all. I'm always happy when you twist
4
00:00:21.320 --> 00:00:26.399
that little radio dial until you find
me. I guess in a sense haunting
5
00:00:26.440 --> 00:00:31.879
the airwaves. Oh, what an
absurd concept. Well, I hope you're
6
00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:37.000
comfortable, because I have quite an
eerie one for you tonight, one that
7
00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:44.399
I believe is completely true to life, because of course, the corpse does
8
00:00:44.560 --> 00:00:50.560
always laugh. Last, Oh my, are you comfortable? Please put your
9
00:00:50.560 --> 00:00:54.799
feet up. You're no stranger to
me. You're my dear friend. And
10
00:00:54.920 --> 00:00:58.359
yes, my dear dear, I'm
what was that? Oh no, no,
11
00:00:58.359 --> 00:01:00.640
no, they can't get in.
Don't even worry about them. They
12
00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:04.200
don't even know you're here. I'm
sure you just be comfortable, and let's
13
00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:08.640
get ready to listen to something something
a little chill, chill on an already
14
00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:42.719
cold evening. Right now, Inner
Sanctum, mysteries, Good evening, friends
15
00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:47.400
of the creaking door. This is
your host to welcome you once again into
16
00:01:47.439 --> 00:01:53.480
the inner Sanctum. Come in,
meet Edgar, our electrical wizard. At
17
00:01:53.519 --> 00:02:00.719
school, he was voted the most
likely to shock him there his wife with
18
00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:04.560
a dull name, though he plugged
her into a wall socket. Now you
19
00:02:04.599 --> 00:02:08.759
said either way, she sparkled,
Yes, sir. Now she's the light
20
00:02:08.919 --> 00:02:20.800
of the party. Ever roll your
eyes over the dream of a half million
21
00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:25.719
dollars? Hm, You did careful, friend, or that dream would become
22
00:02:25.719 --> 00:02:32.639
a nightmare. We're in White Oaks, a gloomy estate somewhere along the jagged
23
00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:38.520
coastline between Crisco and Seattle. On
the floor in a corner of the library,
24
00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:43.120
staring blindly at the ceiling is an
old man. Across the room is
25
00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:46.879
a young man, mortally wounded but
fighting to keep the thread of life from
26
00:02:46.919 --> 00:02:53.439
snapping. Ten feet away from him
is an old style floor safe. The
27
00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:58.039
door of a safe is blown off
and the contents scattering lying nearby. He
28
00:02:58.120 --> 00:03:04.360
tries to get up, but a
cat his hand creeps to a bundle of
29
00:03:04.439 --> 00:03:19.120
cash and drops helplessly over it.
Gus Gus Miller, Yeah, open your
30
00:03:19.120 --> 00:03:23.280
eyes, Come on, son,
show fight. Don't cash in yet?
31
00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:32.240
Hm? Who are you? Sheriff
Ben Lomas, Gus Gus, how'd you
32
00:03:32.280 --> 00:03:38.039
know my name went through your bags? You've been masquerading as Tom Reid.
33
00:03:39.039 --> 00:03:46.520
Yeah, well I might in the
County hospital you take a lot of killing.
34
00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:53.159
But next stop is the County Morgue
Race. For me, you wouldn't
35
00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:59.080
be busting with curiosity about me,
shriff, you wouldn't be uh busting to
36
00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:04.400
talks. Uh hm cayse I am
if you listen, that's what I'm here
37
00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:14.240
for. Gus Miller's my name.
Check back of my pedigree and you'll find
38
00:04:14.280 --> 00:04:17.240
I've been a number more than I've
been Gus Miller. It's a kid.
39
00:04:17.279 --> 00:04:20.680
I went right out of an orphans
home into the big jail of San Quentin.
40
00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:27.759
Number five six two three one seven
was my name for ten years.
41
00:04:29.160 --> 00:04:33.480
Five six two three one seven.
Every night before turning in, I swore
42
00:04:33.560 --> 00:04:40.519
that five six two three one seven. It's how many bucks would cost Society
43
00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:46.000
square accounts with me. Come on. I was a day out of the
44
00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:48.959
Klink, laying around the Frisco docks, wondering where I can hustle a buck.
45
00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:55.240
Big liner just come in out of
the Pacific fog. Well, those
46
00:04:55.399 --> 00:05:01.360
swang pleasure liners. I watched the
passengers getting uh all dressed the cue without
47
00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:06.160
a care in the world. Mong
them was Tom Reid, tricked out in
48
00:05:06.199 --> 00:05:12.199
a white sailing suit. My eyes
kept wandering over there, I thought,
49
00:05:12.319 --> 00:05:15.959
kept jabbing at me that here is
the guy I could be if I played
50
00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:19.800
my cards right. We're about the
same age bill, the average looking guys,
51
00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:25.879
except that Reed was a little pale
around the gills. All Reed had
52
00:05:25.959 --> 00:05:30.399
on me was a bank or you
drive it. Carl rolled up and Reid
53
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:35.199
went to it. I went after
what scheme I had in mind, and
54
00:05:35.240 --> 00:05:40.199
I'm not clear on it anymore.
Yes, is there a there something you
55
00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:46.720
want? A driving north? Looking
for a ride iron? Yeah, looking
56
00:05:46.720 --> 00:06:00.079
to get a hitch? Okay,
hop in. I'm Tom Reid. My
57
00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:02.600
name's Gus Miller. How far are
you going? Uh? As far as
58
00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:09.240
I can get, I guess.
No destination, No destination? How far
59
00:06:09.360 --> 00:06:13.199
you going? Oh? About two
hundred miles? White Oaks? You ever
60
00:06:13.240 --> 00:06:15.319
hear of white oaks? No?
Never did the show place of the Pacific
61
00:06:15.360 --> 00:06:20.040
coast. I'm the last of the
reeds of white Oaks. You bragging or
62
00:06:20.160 --> 00:06:26.639
crying? M both? Maybe?
Why are you so tough? You're too
63
00:06:26.720 --> 00:06:30.800
rich for my blood? Maybe?
And I suppose there is something indecent about
64
00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:34.199
too much money? If bad?
Have you got too much money? A
65
00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:40.279
half million in three days? Why
in three days? My inheritance comes through
66
00:06:40.360 --> 00:06:44.160
them. That's why I'm back in
the States. How do you collect a
67
00:06:44.199 --> 00:06:47.600
half a million? There's a bank
teller pilot up in gold pieces in front
68
00:06:47.600 --> 00:06:53.600
of no A blind uncle you haven't
seen in years, taps his cane along
69
00:06:53.639 --> 00:06:58.079
the floor towards a safe that's been
in the family for generations and opens it
70
00:06:58.759 --> 00:07:02.360
and hands your half of me,
just like that, just like a my
71
00:07:02.480 --> 00:07:09.959
father distrusted banks. I turned the
figure over in my mind. A half
72
00:07:10.120 --> 00:07:14.879
million h Reid looking queerly at me
out of the corner of his eye.
73
00:07:15.639 --> 00:07:19.079
You're burning up with temptation. Million
I I don't know what you talking about.
74
00:07:20.120 --> 00:07:24.279
Poses me for three days, then
go off with all that money.
75
00:07:25.160 --> 00:07:28.839
Uncle Walter will never detect the masquerade. He's blind, and you're a pretty
76
00:07:28.839 --> 00:07:33.160
good faker. That's what you're telling
yourself. I said, I, uh,
77
00:07:33.439 --> 00:07:40.000
where are you all the time?
I'm posting dead somewhere. You've murdered
78
00:07:40.040 --> 00:07:46.439
me. Oh, if I had
any idea like that. For a minute,
79
00:07:46.959 --> 00:07:49.920
Raid's open us. Put the ky
wash on her. We chewed up
80
00:07:49.920 --> 00:07:55.399
about a hundred miles and I caught
that funny look cross and Reid's face again.
81
00:07:56.560 --> 00:08:00.279
I watched the hand clap over his
heart raids, seems to say bagging.
82
00:08:00.319 --> 00:08:03.920
The car began to circle whilely I
grabbed a wheel in the nicke of
83
00:08:03.959 --> 00:08:11.800
time, I pulled her aside,
shut the motor. Let's get you read
84
00:08:11.160 --> 00:08:18.360
my my heart, how bad is
it? How a little doctor gave it
85
00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:24.360
a year. I've been short changed
by two weeks. Get me to a
86
00:08:24.399 --> 00:08:31.439
doctor, I stall. There was
a little man counting up five hundred thousand,
87
00:08:31.480 --> 00:08:37.120
and my mind slowly by one breed's
eyes around me. They were dying
88
00:08:37.200 --> 00:08:41.120
eyes. But I caught a twinkle
as if you were amused over myself.
89
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:48.919
It's your chance, mely, just
sit it out of the stars. Forget
90
00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:54.799
the doctor. I like most about
you as your sense of humor. I'm
91
00:08:54.840 --> 00:09:01.960
taking her that doctor. Thanks doctor, don't bother. It's too late.
92
00:09:01.840 --> 00:09:11.159
Red bury me somewhere as as Gus
Miller. You'll be tom read for three
93
00:09:11.279 --> 00:09:22.600
days. It was too late to
play boy scout and race for the doctor.
94
00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:26.440
Reid was the deadest man in the
world. I told myself that reed
95
00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:31.919
dying crack practically made me his.
There I didn't have to tell myself anything.
96
00:09:31.879 --> 00:09:37.240
The little man was counting five hundred
thousand in my head fast by fifties.
97
00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:48.000
Oh, I found a natural lake
about five miles up a side road.
98
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:52.000
The region was a dead end.
Not a house or a human anywhere
99
00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:56.720
in miles. I swapped clothes with
Reid. We hit his pockets with stones
100
00:09:56.080 --> 00:10:16.639
and said goodbye. Let him slip
well, A downtrodden hill is on the
101
00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:22.200
upgrade now A half million spun tildys
nice page just for giving a corpse a
102
00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:31.919
bath at a roadside lay. Yes, might run into something unexpected at White
103
00:10:31.919 --> 00:10:39.840
Oak. Still, he determined to
try or fry. Let's see what it
104
00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:48.159
is, shall we. I got
to White Oaks in an electric storm,
105
00:10:48.600 --> 00:10:56.440
where the skies giving me a twenty
one gun swore the house was up on
106
00:10:56.480 --> 00:11:01.720
an elevation. Everything about it seemed
to say keep eye out. Not a
107
00:11:01.960 --> 00:11:11.039
soul in sight? Where was the
blind? Uncle? Anybody home? I
108
00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:16.559
been hear the ecko hanging in the
air. Then I heard it tapping,
109
00:11:18.120 --> 00:11:24.360
coming at me out of the shallows. His hand reached for me. I
110
00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:33.159
could feel my flesh. Craym oh, huckle, waller h give me your
111
00:11:33.279 --> 00:11:39.039
hand if you're sure. Huh.
It's been so long since I felt the
112
00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:46.000
warmth of a reed hand. Your
hand. This perspiety, but it's close
113
00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:52.600
in here. I'm I've been in
a rush since Frisco stepping wrong. Your
114
00:11:52.879 --> 00:12:00.799
voice, it's uh, it's changed
for the better. It's uh deeper,
115
00:12:01.320 --> 00:12:07.039
but playing on her, I don't
know who was climbing. It's been a
116
00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:09.360
long time, Uncle, Yes,
yes, it's it's been a long time.
117
00:12:11.759 --> 00:12:18.960
Margaret, your fiance will be here
tomorrow to greet you. Margaret sh
118
00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:26.080
she's coming tomorrow. Yes. Uh, how is Margaret. She's grown into
119
00:12:26.120 --> 00:12:31.320
a fine woman. She'll make you
a good wife, Tom. When did
120
00:12:31.320 --> 00:12:37.240
the wedding bells ring out? The
day you take your inheritance as your father
121
00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:41.000
wished it. You and Margaret were
playmates his children, and your father wanted
122
00:12:41.080 --> 00:12:48.440
someone close to have his money after
you. Uh. This letter from Margaret
123
00:12:48.559 --> 00:12:52.919
came the other day. You'd like
to read it? Sure, yeah,
124
00:12:52.919 --> 00:13:05.639
I'll read it in bed. A
good night, nephew. Oo a bride
125
00:13:05.720 --> 00:13:09.960
went with a five hundred thousand I
have him the letter. I needed a
126
00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:16.919
line on her. I read the
opening paragraph again and again till it was
127
00:13:18.039 --> 00:13:22.519
whispering in my brain. I wonder
how it will be meeting Tom again.
128
00:13:22.679 --> 00:13:28.480
Uncle Walter, we were practically infants
for the last time together. The questions
129
00:13:28.480 --> 00:13:33.519
that keep crowding my mind? What
does he look like? What does he
130
00:13:33.679 --> 00:13:39.960
think about? Will he like me
enough? And will you like me too?
131
00:13:41.360 --> 00:13:50.279
Dear uncle Walter, I had all
a line on her I needed.
132
00:13:50.120 --> 00:14:01.559
Margaret didn't know Tom read from Adam. The next morning I drove into the
133
00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:05.879
one Horseberg they called town. I
wanted to buy a paper in some odds
134
00:14:05.879 --> 00:14:09.759
and ends. I left the general
store and a fat little guy and a
135
00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:15.639
seaman's outfit who had been hanging around
inside and followed me out. They started
136
00:14:15.679 --> 00:14:20.679
the car and he drifted over going
to white Oak's fan Hey, sure,
137
00:14:22.360 --> 00:14:26.360
how'd you get the car? It's
the job read rather than Frisco yesterday.
138
00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:31.799
Can I ride along with you?
Yeah? You're going to White Oak?
139
00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:50.039
Uh huh, I'm Tom Reid's guest. Okay, sure, happy you a
140
00:14:50.080 --> 00:14:54.759
friend of town, will kind of. I was the presser on the ship.
141
00:14:54.799 --> 00:14:58.200
He came over on We hit it
off and I got invited to his
142
00:14:58.279 --> 00:15:03.840
Weddy. What'd you do with Tom
Reid? Mister? I don't get you.
143
00:15:05.440 --> 00:15:09.639
I get you. You're playing at
being read. You're wearing his clothes,
144
00:15:09.720 --> 00:15:13.480
you're driving his car. When you
pay for some junk at the store,
145
00:15:13.600 --> 00:15:18.919
you flashed a wallet I remember seeing
on red. But uh, it
146
00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:26.320
needn't a sweat. Maybe we could
do business for how much? Half?
147
00:15:26.919 --> 00:15:33.720
If you're just masquerading, or if
you killed him? I uh didn't kill
148
00:15:33.759 --> 00:15:41.080
him a heart attack, did it? I just ditched the body, is
149
00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:46.799
it? Half? I'll let you
know what what are you stopping for?
150
00:15:48.440 --> 00:15:54.600
Uh? Get hold of myself for
a minute. Find my smokes here this
151
00:15:54.799 --> 00:16:02.360
compartment. I thought you said,
smokes, bitch, smokes with all six
152
00:16:02.440 --> 00:16:08.559
bullets. Get out of the car, start for the woods. Is that
153
00:16:08.679 --> 00:16:12.279
how you want? That's the way. It's gotta be all or nothing,
154
00:16:14.320 --> 00:16:22.919
No deals with a blackmailer. He
sat down on a slow, wriggling motion,
155
00:16:23.679 --> 00:16:30.600
then fell over on his side into
the weeds. I started a drag
156
00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:33.120
him through the weeds and for a
place to hide him until I could get
157
00:16:33.159 --> 00:16:38.360
some tools and bury him later.
And suddenly there's another horn back in the
158
00:16:38.440 --> 00:16:44.080
road, making like crazy some motors
unable to get past my parked car on
159
00:16:44.120 --> 00:16:48.919
a narrow road. I left trace
as he was and ran to the car,
160
00:16:48.679 --> 00:16:53.679
which a girl a snappy convertible move
over. I can't get by.
161
00:16:55.000 --> 00:17:02.000
Sure are you hunting? Hunting?
Oh? Yes, sir at shooting well?
162
00:17:02.279 --> 00:17:07.440
Uh? I took hot shots of
some rabbits any luck. Nah Uh,
163
00:17:07.480 --> 00:17:11.960
I'm a bad shot, too bad? Am I on the road to
164
00:17:11.079 --> 00:17:18.640
White Oaks? Sure you wouldn't be
Margaret, Yes, I'm Margaret Oho,
165
00:17:21.160 --> 00:17:30.599
I'm Tom raid your Tom reed disappointed? Don't mind I staring? Huh?
166
00:17:30.519 --> 00:17:36.319
Aren't you going to show me the
way? Tom? Why you keep starings?
167
00:17:36.319 --> 00:17:41.880
Get my curiosity up? I'm sorry? Like she couldn't control her eyes
168
00:17:44.079 --> 00:17:48.920
put, I followed the direction of
a stair sent me had hit me.
169
00:17:51.200 --> 00:17:55.240
Murder was written all over me.
There was blood all over my clothes and
170
00:17:55.440 --> 00:17:59.680
my shirt, right down on my
shoes. It was as if Tracy's corpse
171
00:17:59.720 --> 00:18:03.160
was staying him beside me, telling
it to the world. Who knows?
172
00:18:03.200 --> 00:18:08.000
Woods You killed somebody in there.
That's what those shots were. You killed
173
00:18:08.119 --> 00:18:11.799
Uncle Walter, And now you're talking
crazy. A hallboy stuck me up.
174
00:18:11.880 --> 00:18:17.559
I grabbed his gun and finished it. You don't believe me? Huh No?
175
00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:22.279
And you're not Tom Reid. You
got a picture of him grown up?
176
00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:27.079
Eh? Yes, nice and frank
and open. Huh. Being that
177
00:18:27.240 --> 00:18:33.480
honest is gonna cost you something.
Well, don't you scream or something?
178
00:18:33.519 --> 00:18:37.799
I'd rather do this exactly where you
are it's opened the gun and the maroon
179
00:18:37.880 --> 00:18:42.079
convert him? Do you know how
to shoot it? Try me and see,
180
00:18:42.359 --> 00:18:48.000
kid, I got to try.
Whether I like it or not,
181
00:18:49.640 --> 00:19:06.519
I gotta knows. I shoot him
for a girl. My try now he
182
00:19:06.559 --> 00:19:11.119
was shooting first minute easier for me
in a way which like self defense.
183
00:19:12.359 --> 00:19:19.680
Uh still kidding myself, funny.
It was all goodbye. I met a
184
00:19:19.720 --> 00:19:26.519
girl and killed him. All in
less than five minutes. Five hundred thousand
185
00:19:26.720 --> 00:19:33.519
was coming a lot harder than I
figured, alright, it was running a
186
00:19:33.519 --> 00:19:37.079
lot of time late. An hour
was the grabber was in the safe one
187
00:19:37.079 --> 00:19:40.839
way or another, and lamb is
far from the two stiffs and the blind
188
00:19:40.920 --> 00:19:45.160
uncles. I could get. I
got to the safe and began to work
189
00:19:45.160 --> 00:19:55.079
at the dials. Her uncle Walter
tapping his way to it. Mm palm,
190
00:19:56.680 --> 00:20:02.079
yes, yes, uncle Walder,
Oh my glitt No, not not
191
00:20:02.279 --> 00:20:07.720
yet. She'll be wrong and give
me your hand if you but where is
192
00:20:07.759 --> 00:20:12.839
it? Yeah? Well what do
you do read? Palms? Are your
193
00:20:12.880 --> 00:20:19.440
fingers? Yes, nephew. The
reflection of dirt on the palm is if
194
00:20:19.480 --> 00:20:25.119
you've had your hands on the ground, it's not bad. You ought to
195
00:20:25.160 --> 00:20:30.799
be a detective, do you know
the smell of blood let on my hand.
196
00:20:30.400 --> 00:20:36.759
What's wrong card or a skipt Now
listen carefully. I got a gun
197
00:20:36.759 --> 00:20:40.720
in my hand pointing right at you. You had to tap your way to
198
00:20:40.799 --> 00:20:44.240
that floor safe and open it or
no stalling or no questions. But I
199
00:20:44.279 --> 00:20:48.200
said no questions. But I don't
know the combination from memory. I said,
200
00:20:48.200 --> 00:20:52.440
no stalling. If you listen,
the combination is on the memorandum pad
201
00:20:52.519 --> 00:20:57.440
in the library desk. I get
it. He tapped its way along the
202
00:20:57.480 --> 00:21:03.200
floor to the desk, stoop over
a drawer and stayed there in a cross
203
00:21:03.279 --> 00:21:07.799
like a guy in a trench who
was a gun pointing in front of him.
204
00:21:07.839 --> 00:21:10.799
Are you crazy, old coat?
What good's a gun gonna do?
205
00:21:10.880 --> 00:21:21.319
You're blind, You won't get a
scent impostor. He shot me perfect marks
206
00:21:22.720 --> 00:21:27.400
like you could see right along with
anybody. He aimed in the direction of
207
00:21:27.480 --> 00:21:33.880
my voice. I figured. I
moved to a side quickly and emptied my
208
00:21:33.960 --> 00:21:52.920
gun. Huh, that's all of
a show. You fixed a glistening charge
209
00:21:53.000 --> 00:21:56.599
in the can and blew the safe
wall. It was a trick I picked
210
00:21:56.640 --> 00:22:03.799
up in the storm. White Oaks. H nerve for you, still going
211
00:22:03.880 --> 00:22:10.480
for the money with all those bullets
in it. Like you said, I
212
00:22:10.480 --> 00:22:15.200
I don't kill easy. Well,
you're tough, but the joke's on you
213
00:22:15.279 --> 00:22:21.000
all around shuts on me dying empty
hand him. Oh it's on you even
214
00:22:21.000 --> 00:22:26.400
more than that. Son. The
old man wasn't blind, and he wasn't
215
00:22:26.519 --> 00:22:33.039
Uncle Walter. You killed no for
a fact like you. He was just
216
00:22:33.079 --> 00:22:38.640
playing along. He'd been the butler
before he killed Uncle Walter. You see,
217
00:22:38.799 --> 00:22:44.559
he never thought Tom Reids bad hard
to allow him to take that trip
218
00:22:44.599 --> 00:22:52.720
from Honolulu. Well, what's funny, son, The joker's on me?
219
00:22:53.000 --> 00:23:10.920
Or funny with a young man plucked
his rise to fortune and then finds he
220
00:23:10.960 --> 00:23:18.559
can't even get up off his back
one barn blessing. Though he's had all
221
00:23:18.640 --> 00:23:26.960
the time now in the next world
to cut off that five hundred thousands infractions,
222
00:23:29.680 --> 00:23:42.559
May he rust in peace? Friends, It's time once again to close
223
00:23:42.720 --> 00:23:48.319
that creaking door until next week at
the same time when we'll be back with
224
00:23:48.359 --> 00:23:52.599
a little hunk of marra. You'll
be sure to listen, don't you.
225
00:23:53.920 --> 00:24:34.680
Until next week? Then the Nines
as a screen inner sanctum has come to
226
00:24:34.720 --> 00:24:40.279
you through the worldwide facilities of the
United States Armed Forces, Radio and television
227
00:24:40.319 --> 00:26:33.200
service, a little happy Tunes,
and a very fruitful night of scares and
228
00:26:33.440 --> 00:26:37.440
fun, few giggles. I think
I heard you make a few sounds yourself.
229
00:26:38.319 --> 00:26:40.799
Or what's that? Oh no,
no, no, no no,
230
00:26:41.000 --> 00:26:44.480
don't worry about that. No,
no, no, nothing to be concerned
231
00:26:44.480 --> 00:26:47.960
about here, my friends. But
I do hope you know how much I
232
00:26:48.039 --> 00:26:52.279
enjoy spending this time with you.
What what's that? Oh no, no,
233
00:26:52.279 --> 00:26:56.119
no, My name is simply unimportant. To be honest, I don't
234
00:26:56.160 --> 00:27:00.680
really believe I have a name anymore. Anyhow, If you want to talk
235
00:27:00.720 --> 00:27:03.960
to me directly and you don't have
access to your Ouiji board, you're welcome
236
00:27:04.000 --> 00:27:11.279
to send me an email at Weird
Mysteriespod at gmail dot com. You know
237
00:27:11.359 --> 00:27:14.400
I love hearing from you. In
fact, I may be reading some of
238
00:27:14.440 --> 00:27:18.319
your letters in the next episode,
but of course you'll have to wait until
239
00:27:18.319 --> 00:27:22.920
tomorrow for that. So now I
say get some rest in your warm bed
240
00:27:23.519 --> 00:27:27.559
and never forget how lucky you are
to have it. Good night, my
241
00:27:27.599 --> 00:27:45.599
dear, until tomorrow Night,
