Followed by The Shadow starring William Johnstone, originally broadcast October 19, 1941, 84 years ago, The Hoodoo Ship.  The crew of a ship filled with slaves murders the Africans aboard "The Raven" in 1850. In "modern" times, "The Raven" seems to be jinxed. When two murders take place on board "The Raven," keep your eye on the bo's'on with the wooden leg!

Then, Nick Carter Master Detective starring Lon Clark, originally broadcast October 19, 1947, 78 years ago, The Case of the Perfect Alibi.  . A man pays Nick $10,000 to spend the night with him and to act as an alibi...yet still he commits murder!
