On Ron’s Amazing Stories:  First I want to thank everyone that sent me notes of condolences and encouragement for me and my brother. I am sad to report that on Thursday, November 4th, 2021 my brother James Allen Thompson passed away. He was a good man and will be missed. Thank you all for your support.

The podcast today is a simple one. I need time off to deal with family issues and arrangements as you could guess. So for today, we will fill the whole hour with a story that my brother would love. It comes from the OTR series Screen Directors Playhouse and is a classic western starring Greggory Peck.  It is titled The Gunfighter and first aired on June 7, 1951. 

Featured Story – The Gunfighter

The Gunfighter is a 1950 American Western film directed by Henry King and starring Gregory Peck. It was nominated for Best Motion Picture Story during the 23rd Academy Awards. What we will hear is the Screen Directors Playhouse adaptation. It showcases some of the original cast and of course, Peck reprises his role as Jimmy Ringo.

A young, reckless cowboy named Eddie deliberately provokes an argument with the notorious gunfighter Jimmy Ringo. The fight goes badly for young Eddie. Ringo is widely known as the fastest draw in the West, which makes him the target of every gunslinger eager to become famous as; The man who shot Jimmy Ringo.

On Ron’s Amazing Stories we have a replay of sorts. What is nice is that with the exception of a crazy Five Minute Mystery all of our stories came from you guys. We have two from Scotland and one from India. The featured story comes from my brother Jim. He visited the show in December of 2017 to tell us the story of his visit to a mysterious chapel in Scotland. From fairies to a scary woman in red, I think you are going to like this one.

This podcast is dedicated to my brother Jim. 

Featured Story – Rosslyn Chapel

On the podcast, we have a story about my brother’s unexplainable trip to Scotland in the early 1990s. Rosslyn Chapel was founded in 1446 as a place of worship and services continue to be held there today.  Quick math should tell you that it is over 570 years ago. It was built by William St. Clair for his family. Rosslyn’s extraordinary architecture and carvings have inspired for generations and It is a popular destination for visitors. 

You can read more about it in this blog.

On Ron’s Amazing Stories this time we are full of spooky goodness! We have a brand new original Five Minute Mystery starring The British Guy! We review a Heathcliff Lennox mystery titled The Curse of Braeburn Castle. We will hear two listener tales that take us to a creepy hospital encounter and a Halloween night in a graveyard. Our featured story is the ghostly tale titled The Signal Man. Then we end the show with an original ghost story written by 11-year-old Amelia Allison.

Featured Story – The Signal Man

Our featured story comes from a little-known radio series called Beyond Midnight. It was a South African radio horror anthology that ran from 1968 to 1970 on Springbok Radio. This is a strange story, to say the least. At first, it seems to be a simple tale of ghosts haunting a man to the point of near insanity. But there is so much more. Hang out until the end and all will be made clear. The story is titled The Signal Man and it first aired in South Africa in the year 1969.

Other Stories Include – Terasongoon, The Curse of Braeburn Castle, Ghost On The Nightshift, It Happened One Halloween, The Signal Man, and My friendly Ghost.

On Ron’s Amazing Stories and week two of the Month Of Spooky 2021, we are doing something different, but I think you are in for some fun. Sylvia Shults is with us and she isn’t going to be telling us ghost stories. What we will be doing is to listen to the OTR classic, The Thing On The Fourble Board. It’s quite terrifying, and I think that you’ll agree once you have heard it.

Featured Story – The Thing On The Fourble Board

An oil rig worker discovers an invisible creature of unknown origins living beneath the depths of the earth. What happens to this man is horrific, and the ending is absolutely brilliant. If you’re alone, turn the lights down low and listen. It will help get you into a Halloween mood. The story was written by Willis Cooper for his OTR series Quiet Please, and it first aired on August 9, 1948.
