We’re paying another visit to Inner Sanctum Mystery with an episode rebroadcast by the Armed Forces Radio Network, “The Devil’s Workshop,” by John Roeburt! The story features a man who has dedicated his life to the creation of sinister wax figures, sold to wax museums around the world.

Does “The Devil's Workshop” stand the test of time?
