SPECIAL NOTE: This episode stars Peter Lorre, a much-beloved Hungarian-American film actor whose accent, unique appearance and ability to portray timid-but-sinister characters landed him roles in many classic films including The Maltese Falcon, Casablanca, Arsenic and Old Lace, Passage to Marseilles, The Mask of Dimitrios and many others. His voice was also tailor-made for radio.
Suspense, "radio's outstanding theater of thrills", was one of the premiere programs of the Golden Age of Radio, featuring a who's who of Hollywood stars spread out over its 900+ episodes. Scripts focused on suspense/thriller/mystery plots, typically involving a normal person being thrown into a bizarre or dangerous situation, with the solution withheld until the last moment--often with a surprising twist.
Guest stars included Cary Grant, Orson Welles, Frank Sinatra, Agnes Moorehead, Humphrey Bogart, Lucille Ball and Marlene Dietrich. The show ran from 1942 to 1962.
Its haunting theme music was written by Academy Award winner Bernard Herrmann, who scored many of Hollywood's most memorable movies, including Psycho, The Birds, Vertigo, Cape Fear, The Day the Earth Stood Still, Citizen Kane and The Man Who Knew Too Much.

Modern copyright law and recent court decisions establish that creators of AI images can indeed own the copyrights of said images if there is 'considerable' human input regarding prompts, and/or the images are further altered after the fact.
Please know, to begin with, that I pay a monthly subscription fee to use the AI software, which means a considerable financial investment. I've also invested hundreds of hours learning about AI as well as figuring out how to tweak/focus/hone my (lengthy) prompts in order to get the very specific results desired for these videos. Even at that, I probably reject 10 images for every one I use. Additionally, almost every image is further altered (Photoshopped) to remove undesirable features, fix oddities and to add my direct creative touches. All of my images have indeed received considerable human input and thereby meet the lawful requirements for claiming their copyrights. I hereby do so.
