Good evening, friend. This is your host to welcome you through the creaking door into the inner sanctum. Come in and let me introduce some new guests. Now first, here's Merwin, the mathematical murderer. Merwin says that the shortest distance between two ears is a straight cut across the throat.
Heh heh heh. This geometric goon divided three victims with his knife. But to me it just doesn't add up. Ha ha ha. Now meet Edgar, the electrical killer. At school this character was voted the most likely to shock him dead.
Edgar's wife was a doe dame so he plugged her into a wall socket. Now you should see the way she sparkles. Yes sir. Now she's the light of the party. Ha ha ha ha. Tonight's inner sanctum mystery, the Unburied Dead, was written by Ed Adamson and Bob Sloan, and stars Miss Leslie Woods in the role of Claire with Everett Sloan as Max.
Say folks, if you hear a blood-curdling scream, it's just our pet vampire Oscar howling outside. But don't worry, you may be lucky this evening because some nights, Oscar just doesn't give a hoo. Well, now I'll take my spade and uncover tonight's terrible treasure.
A short distance from the railroad tracks the man and the woman stand in the rain looking down into the grave. The woman searches her mind, diving deep into the past for the strange, unremembered events.
If I could only remember, if I could only go back beyond that day on the ship, then And I would know who I am, who I really am. He stands here next to me and says I buried a man in that grave.
