**Tuesday Night Detectives: Halloween Special Edition** This week on a haunting edition of “Tuesday Night Detectives” on Vintage Classic Radio, we're diving deep into the eerie archives for a Halloween treat celebrating spooky detective tales of old-time radio. First, we turn the dial to "The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" starring the unparalleled duo of Basil Rathbone as Sherlock Holmes and Nigel Bruce as Dr. John Watson in the spine-chilling episode, "The Haunting of Sherlock Holmes". Originally aired on May 20th, 1946, our brilliant detective and his loyal companion find themselves pitted against spectral forces threatening to eclipse their deductive prowess. Following that, we have Bob Bailey donning his investigator's cap in the "Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar" episode, "The Ghost to Ghost Matter". Broadcasted originally on May 18th, 1958, Johnny Dollar, the freelance insurance investigator with the action-packed expense account, delves into a mystery where the boundary between the living and the departed becomes precariously thin. Lastly, for those seeking a noir-infused treat, we have the Lux Radio Theatre presentation of “The Lady in the Lake”. This masterful story penned by the legendary Raymond Chandler features Robert Montgomery as the gritty, sharp-witted detective, Philip Marlowe. As Marlowe untangles a web of deception, the shimmering surface of a lake hides secrets darker than the night. So, gather around the radio, dim the lights, and prepare for a night of suspense and mystery. Whether it's ghosts, ghouls, or just plain old murderers, our detectives are on the case this Halloween night!
