Orr: The Wailing Rock Murders

“Two old houses, just alike, built on two huge rocks, not far apart—and one of these rocks is said to ‘wail’ when predicting a murder which will take place within forty-eight hours. Of course the murders take place—and there is plenty of excitement. . . . We liked it because it is really rather ‘shivery’!” (Beatrice, NE, Daily Sun , 1932) Additional First published in 1932.
