This is a never aired episode of Mystery House, which might have been an attempt by Bela Lugosi to set himself up to star in his own horror radio show. It is unknown if this version of Mystery House was part of the original program, which ran on WGN in Chicago beginning in 1929 or Lugosi's re-branding of the program.
Bela Lugosi beckons us to enter The Mystery House! This recording, “The Thirsty Death,” is a considerable mystery unto itself. The story features Lugosi and John Carradine in a mad tale of love, suspicion, and rabies in the jungle. What terrible revenge has Lugosi’s character concocted for his revenge? How did this episode get made in the first place? Why would someone move to a city being terrorized by rabid dogs? Listen for yourself and find out!
