Bela Lugosi beckons us to enter The Mystery House! This recording, “The Thirsty Death,” is a considerable mystery unto itself. The story features Lugosi and John Carradine in a mad tale of love, suspicion, and rabies in the jungle. What terrible revenge has Lugosi’s character concocted for his revenge? How did this episode get made in the first place? Why would someone move to a city being terrorized by rabid dogs? Listen for yourself and find out! Then vote and let us know what you think!

Totally disagree with the naysaying. Doesn’t remotely drag (I mean, seriously, c’mon), yes, duh, Bela sounds like Bela and John sounds like John, and that’s what you pay for and expect with enterprises like this, and the premise is the most messed up of any OTR show.
