RAS #551 – Zombie

On Ron’s Amazing Stories we do have some zombies on the show. So, you will need to prepare for that. We have not one but two Blackstone The Magic Detective episodes, followed by some really great stories from you guys. One of them is a ghost story that is told from two points of view. Then we end the show with a science fiction short story that is quite amazing! So, why not press that play button and enjoy the hour!

Featured Story – The Riddle Of The Seven Zombies

Our featured stories come from the OTR series Blackstone, the Magic Detective. It was a 15-minute radio series which aired Sunday afternoons on the Mutual Broadcasting System. It ran for two seasons starting in 1948. Storylines usually opened with Blackstone telling his friends John and Rhoda about an experience from his past. At the end of each episode, Blackstone challenged the audience to find a solution to a magical mystery. Then Blackstone outlined the trick so that listeners could perform it at home. We will play two episodes; The Riddle Of The Eightball, and The Riddle Of The Seven Zombies. Both first aired in 1949.

Other Stories Include – The Zombie Murder, Moon – The Dragon Prince, The Old Man On The Road, The Haunted Painting, The Riddle Of The Eightball, The Riddle Of The Seven Zombies, and Resurrection

RAS #550 – Delayed Action

On Ron’s Amazing Stories we are full of time, or rather we have a story about time. It is both a paradox and a mind bender. We also have a unique story from Pastor Jason and I hope you are ready to stomach it. If you are a Sherlock Holmes fan you are about to have your mind blown. Could Moriarty actually be a good guy? Press that play button and find out.

Featured Story – Delayed Action

Our featured story comes from the September 1953 issue of Galaxy Science Fiction. It was written by Charles V. de Vet. It is a strange tale titled Delayed Action and it is a real mindbender. You have to pay attention to follow the logic. This planet gave Don Johnson the perfect chance to commit the perfect crime—only he couldn’t remember just what it was he had committed. This one was suggested and read for us by narrator Paul Hampton.

Other Stories Include – The Jules Buck Murder, Moriarty: The Devils Game, Pastor Jason And His Tummy, and Delayed Action

Replay – The Boy In The Basement

On Ron’s Amazing Stories this week we pretty much dedicate the entire show to one story, The Boy In The Basement. It was written by Sylvia Shults and is in fact her true encounter with Christopher, who just happens to be a spirit. This is a rare look at the behind the scenes of ghost hunting and even more amazing her ongoing relationship with Chris. Something that almost never happens. Also, on the show we have a brand new story from you guys, and of course all of the other stuff you have come to enjoy on the show. So press that play button and please come join us.

Featured Story – The Boy In The Basement

This story is featured in the book Fractured Souls: More Hauntings at the Peoria State Hospital. The book was written by our very own Sylvia Shults. The Peoria State Hospital was once the finest facility in the world for the care of the mentally ill. The asylum closed its doors in 1973, but the hilltop remains active to this day. Instead of the conversations of patients and the squeak of nurses’ shoes, the halls now echo with the beeps of K2 meters and the hiss of spirit boxes. It’s still a busy place, and for the spirits of many of its patients, it is still home.

Other Stories Include – Case of Announcer’s Delight, Lincoln on the Verge: Thirteen Days to Washington, The overprotective Ghost, and The Boy In The Basement

Program Note: This is a replay from September 16, 2021. I am taking the week off from podcasting and polled 100 listeners on which episode they would like to hear. With 65 votes this was the clear favorite and I have to say it is one of mine too.

About Sylvia Shults: Sylvia is a Librarian, Author, and Ghost Hunter. She has spent a lifetime in the pursuit of the weird and strange.

RAS #549 – The Submarine Caves

On Ron’s Amazing Stories we have three great stories from the listeners that feature a residual haunting, A ghost named Gary, and one from Essex, England. Our featured story is a good one from the case files of Sherlock Holmes. Then we end the show with something Ron calls, The Tootsie Roll Incident.

Featured Story – The Submarine Cave

Our featured story comes from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes. It is from the OTR series The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes starring Basil Rathbone. Sherlock finds himself at odds with butter (Yes, I said butter). The story is titled The Submarine Caves which is odd because there are no submarines in the story. Confused? You won’t be after you hear this one. It first aired on March 4, 1946.

Other Stories Include – Murder In Tibet, Have Space Suit – Will Travel, Night Knockers, Gary The Ghost, It Did What to Spiderman, The Submarine Caves, and The Tootsie Roll Incident

RAS #548 – Target One

On Ron’s Amazing Stories we travel through time to kill the great Albert Einstein. We have a story from listener Brett about his encounter with some strange orb creatures. Also, Professor C. Cydwick Ohms tells us all about his one way time-door. (That one is read for us by Justin Daniels). And finally, on a new Our Amazing Stories segment you will hear the tragic tale of the Steamboat Sultana. Now if all that sounds pretty good press that play button and enjoy the show.

Featured Story – Target One

Our featured story comes from the OTR series X-minus One and is titled Target One. It first appeared in Galaxy Magazine and was written by Frederik Pohl. In the 1950’s science fiction was plagued with stories about moving through time. There were two main theories: Even if you were to travel through time you would not be able to change the future and second it would be possible to change the future, but fate would find a way to reestablish the timeline. What do you think? Today’s story just might help you decide. It is titled Target One and it first aired on December, 26, 1957.

Other Stories Include – Murder In The Blue, Armada, Desoto Orbs, Really, Stephan King?, Target One, Our Amazing Stories – Sultana, and Time For Texas.
