Greetings, listeners! Thank you for sticking with us through this marathon of episodes! Tonight, my nephew Hephaestus takes the mic and tells us why he chose this old-time radio episode from Lights Out! which starred Boris Karloff as David, an ambitious scientist who thought he could conquer death. What he didn't realize was that conquering death in the context of lab monkeys, rabbits, and mice is so much more ... clinical ... and shall we say, removed from reality? When David's lovely wife, Ruth, dies unexpectedly, his grief overshadows his scientific mind and things don't work out according to plan. He really should have let her rest in peace and kept that (tomb)stone unturned.
As ever, any feedback should be sent via dead letter to me at Hades@firesidefolklorewithhades.com.
