Mystery House (1945) Death in the Saddle

Mystery House – this strange publishing house owned by Dan and Barbara Glenn – where each new novel is performed by the Mystery House staff, before being accepted for publication.

Mystery House was a show in the 1940s, but not a run of the mill type show. It was more of a testing ground for novels. Dan and Barbara Glenn owned a publishing company named "Mystery House/" located at 70 Park Avenue, New York.

Dan and Barbara decided to test some of their novels on a real audience. Each episode was based on a novel they were planning to publish.

The entire Mystery House staff was involved, everyone doing their part, whether it was rewriting for radio, acting, or doing sound effects — everyone participated.
