Cassette introduction and closing comments by "Golden Age" radio performer Elliott Reid.
The Adventure of the Carpathian Horror (Originally broadcast April 14, 1947)
A letter from a prosaic law firm sends Holmes and Watson far away to an ancient castle deep in the Carpathian mountains. Why is Count Romany going mad? Are the legends of the vampires in the family's past correct? Can Holmes solve this case before the terrifying nightmares of Count Romany come true?
The Lion's Mane (Originally broadcast April 21, 1947)
While visiting the seacoast, Holmes and Watson are witnesses to a bizarre death. A man walking by the beach collapses and dies. With his final breath he mutters the words "the lion's mane." Is this a clue to his death or is there something much more sinister at play? A fine adaptation of the original Sir Arthur Conan Doyle story.
