RAS #664 - The Devil Doctor

On Ron’s Amazing Stories this time we explore the different "types"
of monsters, suggesting that they arise from exaggerations, bad
food, and fashion disasters. Then we have two listener stories that
defy any kind of explanation. Marc Reese from San Antonio recalls
his adventure at Phantom Lake Canal, and Mattie Pittman from Glenns
Ferry tells of her encounter with Parma’s Angel. Our featured story
is titled The Devil Doctor and comes from The Witch's Tale radio
series. Also, we have a Johnny Is It True segment all about The
DarkSide Of The Moon. We end the show with Ron reading a dark tale
suggested by Justin Suttles.  Since last week was a bust we
are going to complete the Month Of Spooky 2024 this week. As many
of you noted and commented on, there was no podcast last week. I
had a health issue that landed me in the hospital for a few days. I
am still not at my best, but there is a plan to get things back on
track.  Now, you should press that play button and enjoy the
show! Featured Story - The Devil Doctor Our featured story comes
from a little known OTR series The Witch's Tale. It was a
horror-fantasy radio series which aired from 1931 to 1938 on WOR,
The Voice of New York. The tale is titled The Devil Doctor and it
is listed as one of the 31 most scary OTR stories ever made. I have
to say, I quite agree, and this one is the stuff of
nightmares.  What happens when you buy an old house and start
renovating it?  It first aired on January 8, 1934 Other
Stories Include - The Other Day, I thought - From Bad Dreams to Bad
Hair Days: The Origins of Monsters, The Creature at Phantom Lake
Canal, Parma’s Angel, Johnny is it True - Dark Side of the Moon,
and The Smiling Owl. The Smiling Owl - We have a story called The
Smiling Owl. It was recommended to me by Justin Suttles and comes
from the website . They collect stories much like we do and are
focused on the paranormal. Ron’s Amazing Stories Is Sponsored by:
