Another journey into the realm of the strange and terrifying.

I hope you will enjoy the trip that it will thrill you a little and chill you a little.

So settle back.

Get a good grip on your nerves.

Where are we going?

You'll find out when we get there.

Well, greetings, everybody.

Welcome back to the podcast.

Today we hear from CBS Radio Mystery Theater. Real quick, before we get into today's feature play, be sure to check out my other podcast, old-time radio comedy. Also, if you're enjoying the show, please consider leaving a five-star rating over on the Apple podcast iTunes reviews. All that stuff

just helps me to continue doing this, and I would much appreciate it. All right, well,

let's go ahead and get into today's play. The title of this one is Ghost Powder. And this one aired October 29th of 1975.

Enjoy.

The CBS Radio Mystery Theater presents. Come in.

Welcome. I'm E.G. Marshall, principal of this little dread schoolhouse,

where our curriculum consists of lessons in mystery, suspense, and the macabre.

Giants of intellect, morality, and ability.

But they were also human giants, bedeviled by human problems, tormented by heedless children,

persecuted by jealous enemies, embarrassed by foolish friends, and even haunted by ghosts.

It's a ghost, John. It must be a ghost.

There is no such thing as a ghost.
