Saturday's random pulp cover: The Whisperer "The Dead Who Talked"


 Nice cover for this short lived series.  It ran for 14 issues in it's first run.  The character appeared in short story form in the back pages of The Shadow Magazine (and one appearance in the pages of Crime Busters) over the course of the next three years.  The magazine got a second chance in October of 1940 and ran 10 more issues before bowing out in April of 1942.

ON THE AIR: November 9, 1947


 Ah, gaslighting.  A favorite of old time radio.  But is it really gaslighting if... well, take a listen to this 76 year old tale of Lamont, Margot and, of course, The Shadow and perhaps you'll wake up from your own "Dream of Death"!
