Three detectives enter a mansion plagued by phantom cats, but the greatest danger may be whoever — or whatever — is controlling them. | #RetroRadio EP0459A trio of detectives get involved in a sinister case surrounding a supposedly haunted mansion plagued by eerie feline phenomena. They are drawn into investigating unexplained catlike scrabbling sounds echoing through empty halls, shadows that slink across walls — and the unnerving question: is there a supernatural presence stalking the place, or is someone exploiting local superstition for darker schemes?Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateCHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Show Open00:01:30.028 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 01” (October 03, 1949)00:15:23.977 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 02” (October 04, 1949)00:29:59.677 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 03” (October 05, 1949)00:43:01.043 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 04” (October 06, 1949)00:56:11.388 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 05” (October 07, 1949)01:10:27.270 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 06” (October 10, 1949)01:23:09.183 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 07” (October 11, 1949)01:39:59.137 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 08” (October 12, 1949)01:52:48.200 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 09” (October 13, 1949)02:07:21.564 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 10” (October 14, 1949)02:21:45.483 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 11” (October 17, 1949)02:36:41.042 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 12” (October 18, 1949)02:47:11.247 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 13” (October 19, 1949)03:02:31.748 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 14” (October 20, 1949)03:17:12.587 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 15” (October 21, 1949)03:33:31.053 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 16” (October 24, 1949)03:49:23.986 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 17” (October 25, 1949)04:03:21.929 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 18” (October 26, 1949)04:17:45.380 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 19” (October 27, 1949)04:31:31.991 = I Love a Mystery, “The Fear That Creeps Like a Cat, Part 20” (October 28, 1949)04:44:58.166 = Show Close(ADU) = Air Date Unknown(LQ) = Low Quality***WD = Remastered, edited, or cleaned up by Weird Darkness to make the episode more listenable.

From a chair that killed 60 people to a haunted doll that demands written apologies, these stolen and cursed artifacts have exacted terrible revenge on those who dared to take them — through death, illness, and supernatural torment that forced their terrified owners to return them with desperate warnings to others.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateIN THIS EPISODE: It was Labor Day, 1980 when Cynthia Clements disappeared – it wouldn't be until more than a month later that her body would be found. And we still don't know who killed her. (The Unsolved Murder of Cynthia Clements) *** A harbinger of doom is a sign, a warning of bad things to come. A supernatural forerunner to disaster, you might say – which several do, in Canada. There, they are more than familiar with forerunners of disaster and have several examples they could point to from over the years. (Canada's Harbingers of Doom) *** Can you sue a schnauzer? Can you take a cat to court? Put a Terrier on trial? Can you arrest a mule for murder? You'd be surprised how many animals have been put on trial – and for what reasons! (Accused Critters In Court) *** Wilford Sweeten was found dead of food poisoning. Then across town, a pastor's wife was found dead of food poisoning as well. And that' when rumors already circulating in the small town of Ida, Illinois began to be confirmed – and the identities of the killers would shock people nationwide. (The Murdering Minister) *** It was probably said best by Old Time Radio's “The Shadow” when he said at the beginning of each episode, “The weed of crime bears bitter fruit… crime does not pay.” But true life criminals don't seem to be too concerned about that. Some thieves, however, did learn it the hard way – when they stole what turned out to be cursed relics… and paid the price for swiping them.

In this special Independence Day episode of Ron's Amazing Stories, we celebrate the 4th of July with tales that dive into the heart of American history—blending revolutionary fervor with a dash of humor. From the signatures on the Declaration of Independence to a tooth-related parody involving Paul Revere, we've got an episode that's as entertaining as a fireworks finale. Story 1: Philadelphia, July 4, 1776 - Travel back to 1776 with an episode from CBS's You Are There, imagining modern reporters covering the signing of the Declaration OF Indepence. Hear interviews with historical figures like Jefferson, Franklin, Washington, and Adams, bringing a fresh perspective to a pivotal moment in history. Story 2: A Tooth For Paul Revere - A parody from the OTR series Escape, featuring Liege Butterwick and his tooth in a fictional tale loosely connected to Paul Revere.

Are you ready another thrilling episode of Ron's Amazing Stories! This week, we're taking to the skies as we uncover the lesser-known tale of aviation pioneer John Joseph Montgomery—the man who soared through the clouds long before the Wright brothers but somehow got left behind in the history books. Prepare for a humorous dive into the true story of flight, complete with daring inventors, wild contraptions, and plenty of mustache wax. Podcast Highlights: The Forgotten Pioneer: Discover how Montgomery began gliding through California skies in the 1880s, decades before the Wright brothers' famed flight at Kitty Hawk. Gliders and Gravity: Learn about Montgomery's early inventions, bold experiments, and why gravity had him on speed dial. A special look at Gallant Journey (1946), a film adaptation of Montgomery's life starring Glenn Ford. Ron dissects the film's accuracy and shares fascinating facts about Montgomery's real adventures. Post-Story Reflections: We set the record straight on Montgomery's life and achievements—including his groundbreaking work in wireless communication, petroleum burning furnaces, and even gold extraction devices.
