  "article": "For those of us who are Peter Lorre fans, we can never get enough of that wonderful actor. So this\nis, yes, the Peter Lorre series that, sadly, never was. Lorre was riding a crest of popularity in 1944\nwith a starring role in the Warner Brothers film Mask of Dimitrios, plus a strong supporting\npresence in Frank Capra’s Arsenic and Old Lace (in the part of Dr. Einstein, which radio actor\nEdgar Stehli had created in the play’s original Broadway incarnation). He was also making\nnumerous radio appearances, both war-effort pleas and his usual spookery, including several\nguest spots on Inner Sanctum Mysteries and Creeps by Night.\n“Peter Lorre is being offered,” it was announced in the June 28, 1944 issue of Variety, “in a\npackage thriller, ‘Journey Into Fear,’ as a half-hour evening show on a sliding scale price. Asking\nprice is $2,000 for the first 13 weeks, $4,000 for the next 39, $4,500 for the next 52 and $5,000\nper thereafter. Session is written and directed by Norman Winters and is packaged by Dell\nPeters.”",
