 good evening friends and fellow ghouls this is your host inviting you through the squeaking door of the inner sanctum for another delightful visit with creatures you'd hate to meet on land or sea or in dark alleys well friends now the summer of man's disclosure this young man's fancy likely tends to force the lovely man the reason for that is because i have a one-track mind i can think of the nastiest things in the brahmiest well when i see the first tender flower by dopamine delicate petals i immediately think how nice they look i'm from murderous grave tonight's inner sanctum mystery house of doom was written by milton louis and star satis or tega in the role of mark with charlotte holland as lorraine all right friend turn out the light lie down on your slab i mean yourself and get ready to scream for joy as we hear a terrifying story that could happen to anyone who's a murderer ready now hold tight and listen people in that section of new england call the little financial earth david johnson's hand because the sharp and jagged rocks formed a murderous angry fit rushed out into an everlasting the angry scene there's only one house from david johnson's hand mark studley lives there with his second wife lorraine and folks whispered that something that happens mark and that despite his wealth he couldn't cure a mind but gradually losing its reason lorraine look at that

afraid to let you go afraid why i'm afraid something might happen to you no what could possibly happen see the same thing that happened to the bedding bedding your first wife she she went out on the night like this alone down that rocky road and the next morning i found her body on the beach covered with seaweed like some horrible thing that had been chewed more spit up by a murderous sea i can't

imagined it's not you're not well imagined she was standing right there what's the matter mark look look there on the floor it seems she's come back to torment me to talk to me to kill me possibly mark what are you saying now look you've got to leave this house that's what's doing at this horrid hideous old house lorraine you don't love me really you think i could have stayed here these last few months if i didn't love you maybe maybe if i tell you it'll be easier to bear maybe if i tell you you might find some way out what will be easier to bear in my death door is a flashlight get it all right but what are you trying to tell me you know in a moment i have a flashlight now go to the stairs no no there next to the picture there's something i'm going to show you you know everyone believed my first wife died by accident or suicide she was a very excited when you were out at girl no except lorraine knows that you were murdered murdered yes by me it was carefully planned i wanted our money and i you can't betray me you think i ever would now put your hand on the post underneath the banner the fourth one that's the one go on twist see you're right all right the top door it's built into the floor the floor turn the flashlight down there go on turn it into that black do you see those rocks she fell down there when i spun the trap look ahead against those rocks when the tide

now how did you find out about this door not i discovered it when i got in the house years ago it was empty then it had been empty for years and you chose it because of the door yes but i've gotten to hate it i've gotten to hate every board every window every sound i know i'm going to die here in the sea and she's going to kill me she's going to murder me for lorraine take your hand off that post i said he ran in the top door i received a phone call from mark tonight and i've already looked so strange do i reach it and so so beautiful no no it's nothing it's not not or it's not well that's just it i i don't know i win our commitment daily and and then i changed my mind and when i return he's gone i'm worried which is what did he tell you on the phone sounded absolutely out of his mind big historical wind of herring scream the terrible thing lorraine do you think that he could yeah that's that's what i'm worried about those kids it may not be too likely but a search for him yeah i'll come with you i think you'd better go home no richard you've you've been up all night police in the coast guard are touching thorns i don't see how it could do any good for us to search these beaches not maybe get somewhere oh well fine why this woman down the beach there i think he's found something we're coming look on the rocks near them yes perhaps i can see it very well in this oh yeah i found a body where is it right there you saw the assembly crossing oh so who's with him woman yes this is my husband oh i didn't know it was you Mrs Douglas Karen the miss so you've been enough though i will we should take away the three weeks right before you see it please but you won't i will well friends how'd you like to live in the house to do cozy little place to spend a short life but a loony one you know a little home like that would be our answer for housing shortage just build a few of them and you won't have any challenge to worry about let's get back to our story two years after the death of her husband we find the lovely Lorraine and the house son jay v jones's hand staring out the window just as her husband had gone on the night he was murdered she's married again to her husband's friend richard bellmark yes richard you help me with my raincoat sorry thank you we'll have to be there oh i don't know i suppose they asked him at any rate they'll all be glad to see you well this will be the first time you stepped out of the house in months i can't help it if i've been ill there's no reason to get angry i'm sorry just that i don't care to go out in a storm like that just a short clip down the road i know it's a little rain you're in very good health now please don't talk about it yes i'm quite ready thank you let's go i don't want to leave you tonight at all i was afraid of this where are you something weird something queer about the way you cling to this house though it held you trapped mark was that way before he died too talk about why not what are you afraid of nothing except to leave this house nothing except that you jump at every sound you think i don't notice things you think i'm a fool where are you going out you won't come with me i'll go alone i can't spend this place another moment no i've been locked up in here for days i feel like a trapped animal wait wait wait a minute but you don't go why not because i'm asking you're not i don't want to be in this house alone please say i hear things when i'm in this house alone please don't leave me your life may depend on the please please where should don't go goodbye where did she went out Kathy i want you to come right over on a night like this take the car come right away what there's there's something i want to talk to you about really the rain can't it wait no but the rain are you resusing to come here because you expect a visit from richard i think you know quite well what's calling my name it sounded like mark rounded outside the door yes and what's other is that someone knocked at the door and left the field hello rain you haven't been having no hallucinations again so they're not hallucinations i heard someone call my name all right please richard don't come near you stand over there that's where you are why are you standing there holding the post you shall know do you think you deceived me richard what are you talking about about kathy you're in love with him that's not you would like to have my money and kathy wouldn't you richard that's why you've been saying these tricks on me what tricks calling my name leaving the seaweed out there why should i want to do that to make me confess confess what that i murdered mark how did you first find out richard did you hear me call out in my sleep as i heard mark do good that's how i learned that mark murdered his first wife it's very difficult to keep a murder a secret the same satisfaction in being able to confess why are you telling me this now because you want to know that's why this case is a little trick on me don't you think i played tricks lorraine because i could hear this even to using the seaweed how could you have murdered mark i was waiting for you to ask me he was a powerful man you couldn't have pushed him off those cliffs no i couldn't have and you were never out there with him no everyone knew he was mentally ill everyone suspected suicide yes and how very convenient how could you have killed him i'll show you think you're so anxious to know you would have killed me if i hadn't leaped away in time from here lorraine no so we can let go of me there must be a subterranean hazard down there and the body gets washed out and see that's why you never left his house you were afraid someone would discover your secrets what are you gonna do what do you expect no no i shouldn't die you did it to mark for his money there'll be any satisfaction to your lorraine that's exactly why i'm holding you here now for precisely the same reason your money and since you take so much pride in being right lorraine i'll tell you one more thing you were quite right about kathy and mark so let's go let's go so aesthetically on the phone i'd trade each other's half and c where is she where is she isn't here kathy i came back from the dailies in fact i never got there when i returned the moment ago she was gone richard do you think i don't know woman in her mental conditions very apt to destroy herself destroy herself then you'll be free and you and i must not think of that now kathy she may still be out there somewhere we've got to try to save her if we can come on let's look for her but can't leave this house tonight not in a storm like this why not it was on a night like this that lorraine was killed three years ago i said to let you go out to my wife and i love you and you mustn't leave me alone i can't stand this house another moment locked up with you here night and day for months i can't leave kathy you must stay i can't bear it here alive i'm going where to see some man is that what you're going some man that must be another of your hallucination i'm just going down the road i've got to see some human beings in his right mind or i'll go out of my mind myself kathy don't leave it did you hear him hear what richard that boy a woman's wife calling for help no richard i i didn't hear a thing are you sure yes kathy don't go stay with no i can't stay here another minute we're embedded the torch of the evil and the doom that couldn't be worse i i hate every board every door every piece of it i can't stand another instant goodbye richard kathy dad does she know as i've been talking in my sleep maybe i should tell her this house richard and kathy i'm going to go down that trap door then you just don't have any imagination or you just haven't heard enough in a thing to miss of course we have a very uplifting moral for these gruesome shenanigans it's taken from the haunted words of poltergeist who says always live in a house that's
