Hello and welcome to another episode of Nostologic Mystery Radio.

I'm your host Stevie Kay, and it's my honor to bring you the radio shows of yester.

For this episode, I bring you Barry Craig Confidential Investigator, episode titled,

A Ghost of a Chance, originally aired December 19, 51,

where a man comes back from the dead to haunt a wife who's been dead almost as long as he has,
