Our thanks to our Mysterious Listener Paul for recommending this adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s “The Ring of Thoth” from Escape! Thanks, Paul! Inside the Louvre, an old Egyptian man tells the story of a near-immortal priest. To this day, the priest searches the world for a ring that will grant him his heart’s fondest wish! What secret lies hidden within this ring? How much does this early mummy tale resemble the stories that were to follow? Was that Jack Webb? Listen for yourself and find out! Then vote and let us know what you think!

Thank you for this. This has been one of my favorites for years. Very strange to hear Mr. Angry Pat Novak so subdued and almost romantic.
I thought this episode was great. It had a similar flavour as Suspense’s A Passage to Benares.
I kept picturing Joe Friday in ancient Egypt and that sort of ruined this one for me.
I was upset by the ending, felt tacked on and a twist for twists sake
