IN THIS EPISODE: I’ve been looking forward to cracking open this one, because it’s from a book I received recently from my bride, Robin. She was at an estate sale and came across something she immediately knew I’d want… a book entitled “Alfred Hitchcock Presents A Month of Mystery”. It’s very much like his TV show where he shared short stories from numerous authors. This anthology was published in 1969, with stories dating back as far as 1936. You'll most definitely be hearing more of these in future episodes because I love old creepy stories like these. In this episode it’s a story by Gerald Kersh originally published in 1968. It’s called “Crooked Bone”.
