I LOVE A MYSTERY: THE MILLION DOLLAR CURSE (PRESENTED IN FIFTEEN 15-MINUTE EPISODES, JANUARY 1, 1940 TO JANUARY 19, 1940)

I Love a Mystery ran fifteen-minute episodes five days a week from 1939 to 1952, with from eight to over forty episodes per story arc, allowing the creator Carleton Morse and the actors room to flesh out the stories.

This story arc, also known as The San Diego Murders" and "The Richards Curse," starts with Jack and Doc coming to the aide of a crying woman in a hotel room.  Sunny Richards has decided to take her own life because she feels she is the victim of a generations old family curse.  Jack and Doc are joined by Reggie, determined to prove the curse is nonsense -- but they have only two weeks to do so.

Featuring Michael Raffetto as Jack, Barton Yarborough as Doc, Walter Paterson as Reggie, and Gloria Blondell as their secretary, Jerry Booker.

Enjoy.
