Three Edgar Allan Poe stories you know from a series you don't. "The Tell-Tale Heart", "The Purloined Letter", and "The Fall of the House of Usher" were condensed into 15-minute editions for this lost syndicated radio series.

"The Ox-Bow Incident" was a best-selling book in 1940, a blockbuster Western movie in 1943, and adapted for the Screen Guild Theatre radio show no less than three times. Our recreation of this tale of men who turned into a mob was from 1952.
