Details for The Whistler

Largely a straight-forward crime anthology with a minor supernatural component. In some ways, The Whistler was similar to the series The Shadow-both had omnipotent narrators and similar opening lines-but while the Shadow was also a character who actively pursued criminals, the Whistler was content to observe and comment. "I am the Whistler and I know many things, for I walk by night. I know many strange tales hidden in the hearts of men and women who have stepped into the shadow. Yes, I know the nameless terrors of which they dare not speak." -- from the intro to episode #1 See also: The Shadow, and The Whisperer.
