On today’s program, we’ll hear Boris Karloff in Death Robbery.  This episode from Lights Out aired July 16, 1947.  This was the first of what was to have been an eight episode revival of the series (the last such revival).  The series was cancelled after three episodes because its sponsor allegedly thought it too gruesome.  In other words, I think you’ll enjoy this one!
