Wonderful story’s always! Missed out on the back in the day but loving them now!!!! Thanks for sharing

[@PinkyPuff69]

I really enjoy the episodes when Mercedes McCambridge is featured, her acting is always the best! She has a certain desperation in her vocal tone that feels so real. Thanks for these radio mysteries!

[@violetfemme411]

I agree. As a writer and narrator on a horror podcast I know how difficult it is to find a characters voice and personality, and then make ur audience forget the "man/woman behind the curtain.

[@wilde4445]

I can't imagin having to listen to the voice of M McCambridge day and night, it would be maddening.

[@melfreemans]

Omg so true! She had a sad life. Her son killed himself, his wife, and their two young daughters. He blamed her even though it wasn't her fault. He was a financial advisor and he was stealing and committing fraud. Mercedes had nothing to do with it but when he murdered his wife and little girls he blamed her in the suicide note. He was Mercedes only child, so those girls were her only grandchildren.
