This week, we listen to an episode of Obsession entitled “The Silver Cord,” in which a young woman longs to leave home. But an overbearing matriarch is determined to keep her near. Soon, a dark secret forever changes the bond that connects the two of them. Will the young woman ever escape to begin a new life? Why does the older woman find lightning storms so entertaining? Would this have been improved if they were connected by a literal silver cord? Listen for yourself and find out! Then vote and let us know what you think!
This made Dark Fantasy seem like a Wyllis Cooper production.
Tom Conway did indeed play the Falcon in the movie series
Many of the episodes of Obsession are like this one – they set up a good story, but then can’t follow through. Another example is the episode Dynamite. There are some that manage to follow through with a twist, such as Shadow of Huntley House, so they are not all bad.
It was definitely not one of the good ones.
