Show Notes
The Shadow presents “The Dreams of Death,” originally broadcast on Mutual on April 28, 1946. Episode 282 of the series, this Blue Coal-era mystery stars Bret Morrison as Lamont Cranston and Lesley Woods as Margo Lane, from a script by Stedman Coles.
At a lonely house perched above the ocean, a terrified widow dreams that her husband, lost in a sailing accident, has returned from the sea to claim her. As strange clues gather around the cliff-top home, Lamont and Margo investigate a haunting that may be more than imagination.
The Shadow presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
