0:00Come, they're gonna be sorry now, ain't they? You real ghost is gonna keep them a tussle, right? Oh, are they, Mr. Evans? They? Why they's the ones that's been scaring folks with their pretendin' to be Elfarez and Carmen Cedar? Murderers, that's what they've been, plain murderers. But who are these people? One of their names. Their names? Yes, yes. Well, you should know that. One of them is... Mr. Evans? Oh, Mr. Evans? That thing. He shot me. Who was it? Mr. Evans? Mr. Evans. Mr. Evans. Mr. Evans. He's dead. Oh. Thank you, Lamont. Lamont. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. What in grant me them? You little fool. You little fool.

1:00It is useless to struggle, Senator. You're coming with me. We are living here. Let's go. Come on. Stop biting me, you little spitfire. Oh. Now I shall take you for a little horseback ride, Senator. And make the most of it. You shall be the last ride you will ever take. Mr. Evans. Oh. Oh, please. There you are. Shut up, you. Come on, Santo. Hey. Come on. Hey. Where are you taking me? Well, right now, Senator Issa, we are in one of the tunnels as the single-aids called one. And I don't think that you should hope anyone will find you here. This mine has been abandoned for almost 50 years. To this door, please. Step in the room. Go, Alfred. You brought back company.

2:00Yes. I've brought up one of the guests from the Evans Hotel. Oh. Mr. Dana's been nosing around all night. She's the one. That's the guy she had with her. We'll return for him later. Where's Eddie? I'm right here. That man. That's the one who was shot in front of a hotel. That's right, Susette. What's that wound in your hair? That was a little trick we learned from some moving folks who was here once. It's pretty good, eh? Not too good. And I suppose this woman was the one who sang his common seated. Yeah. How do you know? I'd recognize that off-key voice any fun. Say, another try to do that. No. So I'm finally meeting the ghost of bad creeps. I guess you could call us that, Senator Issa. I wanted to kick off your mask, Alvarez, so I can see you, too. I never take off the mask. Now, why did you bring me here? What do you want of me? We have decided, Senator Issa, that you should become one of us. That's what part would I play in this ghost, isn't it? Well, we have always felt that our performance would be more effective.

3:05If we only had a corpse, a real corpse. You mean... You mean that I would be...? Yes, Senator Issa. And you would be the corpse. No, no. And I think that you will give your first performance this very evening. You will exhibit you for your companions back in bad grief. Now, have you any preference? preference. What do you mean? Well, would you rather have a bullet hole perhaps in your head? A real bullet hole this time, of course? Or would you prefer a knife? No, let me out of here. You can't do this to me. Since you won't make your own choice, then your iter I shall make one for you. A knife would be much more effective. No. No. Eddie, you will use your knife please. You do those things so artistically. Okay. Oh, no, let me go. Let me go! Now it'll be all over in a second.

4:05Steady now. Drop that knife, Eddie. Huh? What? What? Who was that? I don't know. Since you won't drop the knife, I'll have to knock it out of your head. Well, the knife was not out of my hand, I didn't see no one do it. What is it? What's going on? The voice is right here in this room. The voice is still here in the room. You need to look around for me. I've used my hypnotic power so that you cannot see me. Who are you? I am called the shadow. The chef? I've heard of him. Now Mr. Elvarez, we shall remove your mask. No, no, take your hands off me. Yes, now we see what you look like. How do you like it? Why? Why you are the guide who led Mr. Kransen meet a bad creep? Well, what of it? Why have you tried to frighten people away from bad creeps? What secret have you here that you've been willing to resort to murder to protect? We like to be alone, that's all. It wouldn't be gold, would it?

5:06Answer me, is it gold? Why don't you find out? On my way in here, I saw that there had been some recent digging in this mine. When I examined it, I saw that you'd struck a vein of pure gold. That's why you've tried to frighten people away. You're stealing this gold from a mine that does not belong to you. Yeah, what can you do about it? I can turn you over to the authorities, all of you, on charges of loss and aid and murder. Listen, Shadow, you've gone far enough, see? You ain't telling us what to do, nobody is. We've been prepared, just as you're happening, is this? Well, prepare. There's enough dynamite credit in this mine to blow the whole work hard in the skyrocket. No, don't use the dynamite. Shut up, Eddie. Maybe we can't see you, Shadow, but when I pull the switch, you'll die just like the rest of us. Hey, he-he don't know what he's saying. Shadow, huh? Well, let's pull the switch and see. No, stop him. Don't touch that switch. Let me go. You hear me, Shadow, let's go. Look out, you're knocking over the lamp. Well, you can't see me now, even, Shadow.

6:07Fight is not even termed. Come on, where are you? I'll go. Come with me quickly. Can you hear me? We're gonna try to get out of here. Well, where are you, Shadow? Are you afraid of me? Are you? Cut it out, will you? If you pull that switch, you'll kill all of us, Shadow. Why don't you try to stop me pulling the switch now, Shadow, huh? Wait a minute. Where's that girl? It must have made a break. I'm gonna do the thing. Me too. Oh, no, you don't. No one is getting out of here alive. Lamon. I'm right here, my god. Well, I made it just in time. Are you all right? Yes, but those people. Those people we left in the mine. They're buried in there. There's nothing we can do. Oh, how awful.

7:07Lamon, how did you know where to look for them? Very simple, manga. You remember how we followed the movements of the ghost by recalling the verses of the Elvarez and Carmen Cita song? Yes. Well, I finally remembered the fourth verse. It tells of how Elvarez fled to the single ace mine on the hillside. I played the hunch that they were sticking to the song and came here. Lamon, from now on, man and boy, that's my favorite melody. Friends, you ought to hear next week's unusually thrilling shadow story. When Lamon and Margot venture into Voodoo land, to solve the weird mystery of the trouble. I wonder if you can help us. We're looking for the Nezbit plantation.

8:08Nezbit? Yes. Nezbit? Plantation? Yes, yes. Keep away. Keep away from there. Come back here. Come back. Lamon, did you see here?
