We continue to delve into our Listener Library, this time featuring an episode of Suspense entitled “The Devil’s Saint” by John Dickson Carr! The story was recommended to us by Hubert after listening to our take on the Cabin B-13 version of the same story using the title, “The Sleep of Death!” Carr’s story tells the story of a young woman and her mysterious uncle, played by the one and only Peter Lorre. When a young man seeks the niece’s hand in marriage, the uncle forbids the wedding unless the suitor passes a night in a seemingly cursed room. Why do guests in the tapestry room die during the night? Will the young man survive to see the dawn? Is there any better way for young unmarried women to attract husbands than wearing funny hats? Listen for yourself and find out! Then vote and let us know what you think!
