What is The House That Vanished about?

THE HOUSE THAT VANISHED was originally published in the October 15, 1935 issue of The Shadow Magazine. Murder takes place in an old house. Murder that is discovered by two men. But all traces of evidence vanish along with the house itself. The Shadow must find that evidence along with the house that vanished.В This story really sweeps you along on a thrilling ride. Then, after you have finished reading it, you look back on it and realize it was was pretty cliche-ridden. But all the cliches work. And it makes for a fun time adventuring with The Shadow in a lively mystery. But at it's heart, the story is firmly in the B-movie category. But that's not necessarily bad.В B-movies have taken a bad rap. As it turns out, B-movies are some of the most enjoyable movies I've watched. So think of this Shadow story as a B-movie. It's like sitting down in a 1930's movie theater watching an old Monogram mystery. The film, like this pulp story, is filled with cliches. But they make the story feel familiar; comfortable. And they probably weren't noticed as cliches back then; it's only from being repeated so many times since then that they have taken on that aura.В It is a dark and stormy night. Now
