The Monkey’s Paw & The Mines of Falun & The Sandman & Double Strip - Originally Broadcast 1967/68 - 2 Audio Cassettes

W.W. Jacobs et al Price: $19.95

Mystery Theatre presents possibly one of the scariest camp fire stories of all time - W.W. Jacobs’ The Monkey’s Paw

Let’s set the scene - someone is given a magical monkey’s paw that grants wishes. When that person makes a wish, the wish comes true but at a cost to the wisher. For example, you may wish to bring someone back from the dead. But with all that time lying in its grave, what sort of shape do you think the corpse will be in?

Next in this collection are two stories by E.T.A. Hoffmann - The Mines of Falun and The Sandman ...

The Mines of Falunsuggests that one should always take the advice of a 150 year old miner

The Sandman is a story of the origins of one man’s insanity. His insanity begins as child upon being told, by his parents, the traumatic bedtime story of The Sandman

Finally, Double Strip asks how many spies can there be in one bar at one time, posing as if they are all there on business, watching a beautiful young lady perform the dance of the seven veils? And is there more to her dance than there appears?
