A place of mystery and terror. Where the hooded figure appears and sits at the keyboard of the ruined old organ, mumbling and gibbering his fantastic tales! As his gnarled hands whip the cracked keys!" An opening narration: "Little do they know... Little does anyone know, the true story behind the tale of the "Crawling Terror"... I know it. And I shall tell it to you now. It's a very... funny story. Just the thing for a good night's sleep. TED OSBOURNE Below is episode 72 "The Mahogany Coffin" from the series:
