Show Notes
Our final Halloween Horror was a Boris Karloff Classic! Not quite as bizarre as Catwife… but close. In my recreation also produced with cast members from Ghost light Theatre, the characters have been gender swapped, names included, and are vocalised by Sandra Harman as Eve, Yasmin Elahi as Jo, and Gary Farmer – Trickett as Adam. I should advise this episode contains elements of horror that might not be suitable for young ears under the age of 15, as the story deals with a woman trying to bring back to life her husband who died in a car accident. However she has forgotten something VERY important..
Death Robbery was written by Arch Obler. Its starred the vocal talents of Sandra Harman as the Eve, Yasmin Elahi as Jo and Gary Farmer Trickett as Adam. Sound effects & direction sound were done by Nathan Schulz, other known as The Drama Merchant. Music used in this program is by Kevin MacLeod.
