Friday's Favorite OTR

Nick Carter, Master Detective: “The Case of the Howling Horse” 9/30/45


Nick is asked to investigate a strange case. Apparently, there is a rather strange horse loose on a wealthy explorer’s remote estate. First, the horse actually howls. Second, it’s been killing cattle. Third, it has apparently killed a man.


Nick dismisses all this as nonsense, of course. But there is something strange going on. All those headless corpses Nick and his assistants keep tripping over pretty much give that away.


This action-packed episode does a really nice job of weaving a monster/horror story into the show’s usual mystery format. The solution isn’t one many listeners will figure out—it’s a little too bizarre for that. But there’s plenty of excitement to be found along the way regardless.
