Ladies and gentlemen.
[clock chiming] Murder at Midnight.
They, they'll hang me like a common criminal, and I didn't mean it.
You know I didn't.
Oh, stop whining, Gerald.
Take your medicine like a man.
What? All right, Harvey.
I'll stop.
You're responsible for the whole thing.
You know you are.
And since they can only hang me once, even for two murders [slap] [instrumental music]
Midnight, the witching hour when the night is darkest, our fears the strongest, and our strength at its lowest ebb.
[dramatic music] And now Murder at Midnight, tales of mystery and terror by radio's masters of the macabre.
It all began at one of Arthur Cunningham's parties.
He always gave a party when he came back from one of his trips abroad.
I went there with Gerald, my partner, and his wife Susan, beautiful Susan.
Did I care for her? [laughs] People used to say so, but she was too self-centered a woman for me.
Now, I liked to look at her just as I like to look at anything that's, uh, lovely.
That was all.
As for Gerald, well, he was rich, which was the only reason he was my partner.
But suppose I start at the beginning, at the moment we got to the party and Arthur came over.
Well, hello, Harvey.
