Calling Dr. Death (1943, 63 mins.): A distraught doctor is tormented by voices in his head that are urging him to end his unhappy marriage - forever.

Weird Woman (1944, 64 mins.): Sorcery and superstition take a walk down the aisle when a professor marries a woman raised in the jungle by voodoo witchcraft practitioners and then dismisses her ominous warnings.

Dead Man's Eyes (1944, 64 mins.): When an artist loses his sight in a freak accident, his future father-in-law promises to bequeath his own eyes upon his death - which ends up being much, much sooner than anyone could foresee.

The Frozen Ghost (1945, 62 mins): Things are certainly not what they seem when a hypnotist takes refuge in the spectacular mansion of a female friend who made her money from a creepy wax museum.

Strange Confession (1945, 62 mins.): A brilliant chemist with the key to the cure for influenza is forced to take drastic measures when his greedy boss prematurely releases the unfinished drug to the public.

Pillow Of Death (1945, 67 mins.): A psychopathic killer is on the loose, so the eccentric and wealthy Kincaid family calls in a psychic investigator to put an end to the mysterious murders haunting their household.
