Transcript
A neutral broadcasting system presents The Mysterious Traveler, written, produced, and directed by Robert A. Arthur and David Cogler. And starring tonight too of Radio's foremost personalities, Eric Biffler and Brett Morrison in I Died, Last Night.
This is the Mysterious Traveler, inviting you to join me on another journey into the realm of these strange and the terrifying. I hope you will enjoy the trip, that will thrill you a little and chill you a little.
So settle back, get a good grip on your nerves and be comfortable if you can. For tonight, our journey is one such as no living man ever took before. We're going to a company at the element named Gregory Raymond across the very threshold of existence into another world.
It's a story I call, I died last night. My friend Mr. Gregory Raymond was going to tell you what his strange experience is. A man of middle age with bushy gray hair and the nervous intensity of one who's concentrated his whole life upon a single absorbing interest. As he proceeds with his tail, please overlook the inconsequential
fact that he's dead. My name is Gregory Raymond and it is perfectly true that all my life I was concentrated upon a single interest, the study of death and what comes after it. Even from boyhood that one interest absorbed me.
I made a thousand efforts to penetrate the baffling veil that separates life from death to affect communication with those on the other side of the dark curtain. And in this effort I had no success until I met that man of great wisdom from the East, the Yogi Krishna.
Then I knew I had found the teacher I needed. I studied daily for months with Krishna and his other pupils. I devoted my entire fortune to the project. And we were just on the brink of success when one evening the yogi kept me with him after the others had left.
