Episode 0071 "The Murder Museum"
Original Story by Henry Slesar Directed by Himan Brown Host: E.G. Marshall
A museum dedicated to criminals becomes the scene of the retelling of a real murder when the relative of one of the "exhibits" protests his placement in the museum.
You're about to be taken on an unusual museum tour. There won't be any Mona Lisa's on this tour, no Greek vases or Roman statuary, because this establishment specializes in only one kind of exhibit and that's why our story is called The Murder Museum. You may have been to a murder museum like the one in our story, a house of wax, where the most brutal crimes of the century are recreated and paraffined for the wide-eyed enjoyment of the public. But now you're going to have the unique opportunity of hearing one of the most shocking exhibits of all, speak for itself.
It begins inside the murder museum itself, the home of Professor Rafael Gallinari's House of Horrors. There's a fair-sized crowd in the museum today. As usual, they listen in fascination to the words of their tour guide as he takes them from one bloody exhibit to another, recreating for them the terrible crimes which have immortalized these criminals and their victims. There is one person in the crowd who seems reluctant to listen to his words, who hangs back and shields her pretty eyes from the sight of the wax images. Her name is Lisa Brandon.
