Listen "(EP25) Suspense: "The Devil's Saint""
Episode Synopsis
January 19, 1943
Peter Lorre appears again in the John Dickson Carr story about a bedroom where its guests are murdered. A young woman tells her uncle that she plans to marry a man she met just days ago. The uncle invites the man to stay at their chateau in the “Tapestry Room,” which sounds interesting enough. He wants to scare the man away, and the man wants to prove his love for his intended bride.
The story was also adapted for the comic book Super-Magician Comics. It appeared in issue #25, with a cover date of May 1944. The main feature of the comic book was heroic stories about Blackstone the Magician. This was the only Suspense story used in the comic book series.
