Jealousy (9/27/42 – The Whistler: Old Time Radio Mystery)


Confined to her sickbed and tormented by suspicion, a troubled woman becomes convinced that her husband is plotting to kill her so he can be with someone else. Every whispered conversation, every late‑night absence, every unexplained gesture feeds her growing fear. But fear has a way of twisting into something darker—and in her desperation to survive, she decides to strike first.

As paranoia deepens and motives blur, The Whistler watches from the shadows, amused by how jealousy can turn love into a weapon and suspicion into a deadly trap. This classic episode blends psychological suspense, domestic tension, and the signature moral irony that defines The Whistler, making it a gripping listen for fans of vintage mystery and noir‑style radio drama.
