Cold Storage
Description
A Baltimore man inherits money and locks up his mother in an old Underground Railroad hideout, thinking she's dead when she's really alive, but everything goes wrong when he marries a sneaky woman who wants to steal his property, and he finds out a trapper's widow is trying to blackmail him.
A money-loving son sees his inheritance disappearing when his mother, supposedly dead, suddenly comes back to life. A chilling tale not of life and death, but rather of death and life.
Pushing aside the corpse of his mother, who is not dead at all, a Baltimore heir locks her in an old Underground Railroad station, but his plans fall apart when he marries a scheming woman who wishes to take over the estate, and discovers he's being blackmailed by the trapper's widow.
CBS Radio Mystery Theater is a radio drama series created by Himan Brown that was broadcast on CBS Radio Network affiliates from 1974 to 1982, and later in the early 2000s was repeated by the NPR satellite feed. In New York City it was not aired by the then all-news WCBS but by its originating station, WOR, which produced and announced it as simply Radio Mystery Theater.
