The episode is part of the Suspense series, first broadcast on October 12, 1944, and stars Reginald Gardner. The story follows George's odd claims, his strained marriage and the mounting tension that surrounds his behavior as the household grows more unsettled.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
