One Shining Night

Strange Wills. Stories of Strange Wills made by Strange People, starring the distinguished Hollywood actor Warren William, and featuring Lorraine Tuttle, Perry Ward, with Howard Culver and an all-star Hollywood cast, and the original music of Del Castillo.

I devise and bequeathe to my heirs the Seven Deadly Sins, Envy, Hate, jealousy, anger, despair, pride, and revenge. And here is our distinguished star of radio stage and screen, Warren William. These are stories of strange and unusual wills.

Whills which to some are harbingers of good fortune, while to others messengers of misery, Or are any of us safe from the evil and diabolical plans of men and women, who, frustrated in life, seek the bitter fruits of revenge in death, so that no reflection can fall on any person or persons living or dead, time, names, and locale have been changed.

Only the evil intent of the dead departed remains. You'll presently see what I mean, but first let's hear a word from your announcer. And here is Warren William, as John Francis O'Connell, in one shining hour.

If Lucretia Borgia earned the dubious honor of being a mad killer of Italy, I wonder what history will call her direct descendant Professor Don Borgia. That he was brilliant is attested to by his degrees from universities and colleges the world over, and from the many books he had published at the turn of the century.

That he was evil is also a matter of record. For Professor Don Borger was expelled from Europe. His name stricken from the councils of all reputable institutions, and he, finding himself an outcast, took his young daughter and came to America.

I'd heard only rumours of why he had fallen from grace. He had been accused of many things, the practice of medieval sorcery, witchcraft, and experimentation with the human mind, just as questionable vivisectionists do with dumb animals.
