This episode aired September 9, 1947 on Mutual Radio Network stars Bret Morrison. The police suspect vandalism in the cemetery until a series of ghoulish grave robberies includes the disappearance and murder of the cemetery caretaker. Believing the gravediggers will return to finish what they couldn’t due to an unexpected interruption, Lamont and Margot attempt to observe the late night happenings while avoiding the police standing guard. Digger, one of the two gravediggers, learns Koller’s scheme of digging up fresh corpses, then altering them with identifying marks so the burned remains will simulate his clients. The clients then pay hearty for either an insurance payoff or a start on a new life. Unable to retrieve the body with a lame leg, Digger agrees to partner with Koler so the other grave robber, Ryan, can become the next victim. Uncovering the truth from Koler’s latest client, The Shadow sets out to find the proof and interrupts Koller and Digger’s falling out so he can tie them up for the police.
