·27 min·1 clip
A hidden $10,000 and an 1841 resolution connect Duke Toback to the Cabot family's supernatural history.
1. Dark Fantasy presents "Resolution 1841," a supernatural audio drama set during New Year's Eve 1941 at the old Cabot house north of Quincy, Massachusetts. 2. Laura Cabot narrates the events, while Duke Toback, Ed Richards, and Helen Richards provide the four-person gathering through which the mystery develops. 3. The central hook is that Laura and Duke feel they have known each other and the Cabot property long before meeting on December 31, 1941. 4. Laura, age 23, describes her connection to Duke as "something greater" than romantic love and recalls knowing him "a long, long time ago." 5. Duke says the house's lane, high ceiling, fireplace, pine walls, and oak floors seem familiar even though he has never visited Massachusetts. 6. Laura explains that the property has belonged to her family for more than a century but carries a debt exceeding $3,000. 7. After Duke is struck by a collapsing pile of firewood, he speaks as Jeremiah Cabot and asks for his daughter Laurelin. 8. Laura connects the event to a family legend about Jeremiah resolving to return to Earth 100 years after December 31, 1841. 9. A brick behind the fireplace conceals papers, the original deed, and $10,000, giving the property mystery a concrete financial stake. 10. Listeners who enjoy vintage supernatural fiction and atmospheric haunted-house mysteries.
