00:24:49I mean the police not finding any clues or anything

00:24:54It's terrible

00:24:56I just shudder when I think about that butcher

00:25:07I won't feel safe until they do

00:25:25And I can hardly wait

00:25:28Well I better get going

00:25:30Tonight is the weekly lecture on ancient history

00:25:33Good morning

00:25:35Tonight is the weekly lecture on ancient history

00:25:38We're learning about cults of the Egyptian gods

00:25:41Did you say Egyptian gods

00:25:44Well that's a coincidence

00:25:46What kind of a coincidence mother

00:25:48Oh well there's that nicest little man

00:25:51Oh well

00:25:53Call me when you're ready to come home

00:25:55I don't want you out in the streets at night

00:25:57Not with all this terrible killing going on

00:25:59Yes I will mother

00:26:01Bye see you later

00:26:21Hello Helen

00:26:23Dorothy Fremont

00:26:25You are coming to Suzette's party

00:26:28Oh wonderful

00:26:30I have a fantastic treat planned

00:26:32Oh well I found a perfectly delightful caterer who has a marvelous idea

00:26:37Who

00:26:38His name is Fuad Ramses

00:26:40Ramses the first and Ramses the second were pharaohs

00:26:44It was Ramses the second

00:26:47Whose soldiers were drowned in the Red Sea while chasing Moses and the Israelites

00:26:52Now

00:26:54Our mutual interest in the cults of ancient Egypt

00:26:57Takes us tonight to the cult of Ishtar

00:27:00A goddess who was worshipped by the early Egyptian and Assyrian peoples

00:27:05More than 5,000 years ago

00:27:07The worship of Ishtar

00:27:09Or the Mother of the Veiled Darkness as she was sometimes called

00:27:13Was one of the most bloodthirsty religions ever known

00:27:17Though she was worshipped as the goddess of love and beauty

00:27:22Such as Venus or Aphrodite of the Greek and Roman civilizations

00:27:26Hers was an evil love that thrived on violence

00:27:31Now the festival of Ishtar was celebrated at the beginning of spring

00:27:36When life again was given to the land

00:27:39From the swollen body of the Nile River

00:27:42The temple of Ishtar stood high on a hill

00:27:46Overlooking the city of Antioch

00:27:48The goddess was served by 20 beautiful young virgin girls

00:27:52Shammas was Ishtar's high priest and lover

00:27:57He was worshipped as a lesser god by the men of the city

00:28:02On the eve of the feast of Ishtar

00:28:04The people of the city crowded around the temple

00:28:07Here for six wild days and nights

00:28:10The young priestesses would mingle with the men of the city

00:28:14And lust would reign over the land

00:28:17On the seventh day the crowd would gather at the temple for the great feast

00:28:22The blood feast that would give the goddess to the people

00:28:26The young priestesses would be slaughtered on the great altar

00:28:30Their blood would be caught in silver bowls as it ran from their bodies

00:28:35Then certain organs and limbs would be removed

00:28:39And prepared as dishes to serve the people

00:28:42As the last morsel of this horrible feast was eaten

00:28:46The high priestess would show herself rising from the tomb

00:28:51A living incarnation of Ishtar

00:28:54Ishtar arisen in flesh and blood

00:28:58And become part of the people

00:29:16Ishtar

00:29:20Ishtar

00:29:43This custom of the blood feast existed for more than 400 years

00:29:48And was finally abolished by Amenhotep

00:29:51The second of the 15th dynasty

00:29:54It is said that even today

00:29:57There are still followers of this gruesome goddess

00:30:00However it has never been proven

00:30:03And this concludes my lecture on ancient Egyptian cult

00:30:08I hope to see you all again here next week

00:30:18Thank you

00:30:20I'm glad you enjoyed it

00:30:22Thank you sir

00:30:39Oh, how could a race of people actually follow such a vile cult?

00:30:45Well, the ancients had many strange cults, honey

00:30:48You know, an idea based on blood and lust

00:30:51Well, it could spread quickly and civilization founded on superstition

00:30:55Yes, I can see what you mean

00:30:58But to actually eat human flesh

00:31:01Pete, how could they?

00:31:03Oh, come on honey, let's talk about something more pleasant

00:31:06Like, for example, you and me

00:31:08You're coming to my party Saturday night, aren't you?

00:31:11I'm counting on you being my date

00:31:14Oh, I wouldn't miss it

00:31:16Say, I understand your mother went all out on this one, even for her

00:31:19But I will try and make it if I'm not tied up on a case

00:31:23You know, with all these grisly murders going on

00:31:26I'm on 24-hour call

00:31:28Pete, what do you make of all these murders?

00:31:31Isn't there any clue at all?

00:31:33No, not so far

00:31:36You know, we have every man in the force working double duty

00:31:40But nothing's broken so far

00:31:43A little young, young Tony Parker

00:31:45The boy who was with the girl killed on the beach

00:31:47He did give us one clue

00:31:49He said that everything happened so quickly

00:31:52He got a glimpse of gray hair and strange glowing eyes

00:31:57And it seems to be an older man that we're looking for

00:32:00I kind of got one clue of my own

00:32:03It's, uh, I can't seem to make it fit, though

00:32:06It's about a book

00:32:08But I can't, I can't make out the significance of it

00:32:12I feel safer with you working on it, Pete

00:32:15And now I better call Mother for a ride home

00:32:18She gets frantic when I'm out late at night

00:32:21Say, how about me giving you a lift?

00:32:23You know, the mad killer wouldn't bother you being with a policeman

00:32:26And don't worry, it's not a police car

00:32:28I'm not hinting, that would be great

00:32:31Just let me call Mother first

00:32:33Okay

00:32:43Let's stop for a minute, will you?

00:32:46I, I don't know

00:32:49Do you think it's safe?

00:32:52You know, on second thoughts

00:32:54You might be safer with the killer than you are with me

00:32:57Pete, don't make a joke like that

00:33:00I'm not making a joke

00:33:02I'm not making a joke

00:33:04I'm not making a joke

00:33:06I'm not making a joke

00:33:08I'm not making a joke

00:33:10Pete, don't make a joke of it

00:33:13You know I'm not afraid of you

00:33:17And it is such a lovely night

00:33:20Why not?

00:33:22But just for a little while

00:33:24Okay

00:33:30You know

00:33:32This is the first pleasant evening I've had since that first murder

00:33:36I'm just gonna sit back

00:33:39Relax

00:33:42Say

00:33:44Do you know now that I've got you to myself all alone

00:33:47I don't know what to do with you

00:33:50But I got an idea or two

00:33:52Easy, Mr. Officer

00:33:55You're supposed to keep law and order

00:33:59Not break it

00:34:01But you know, you are pretty nice

00:34:04You know something

00:34:06You're pretty nice yourself

00:34:09Hey, Suzette

00:34:11Well, ever since we started these Egyptian culture classes

00:34:15Well, I wanted to say something to you

00:34:18You have, Pete?

00:34:20What is it?

00:34:22Well

00:34:25I don't know, I guess I'm a better policeman than I am a public speaker

00:34:32Then don't speak, Pete

00:34:35Don't speak

00:34:39Don't speak

00:34:44We interrupt this program to bring you a news bulletin

00:34:48Another victim of the recent wave of brutal attacks has been found near death

00:34:53Police say the victim is a young girl about 23

00:34:57Identity has not yet been established

00:35:00The girl's condition is described as critical

00:35:02I'd better get going, honey. They might need me down at the station

00:35:05Oh, Pete

00:35:10Well, that's it. The whole story

00:35:14We found this girl on a deserted street on the outskirts of town

00:35:18She was just about gone, but we did get her to a hospital

00:35:21The whole side of her face was hacked away

00:35:24Pete, if she can identify her attacker, this just might be the break we've been waiting for

00:35:28Well, then let's get over there. Pronto

00:35:31Well, let's go

00:35:33Let's go

00:35:36Thank you, nurse. That'll be all

00:35:39Doctor, we've done all we can

00:35:41Thank you

00:35:43You, uh, may only stay a few minutes. There isn't much time

00:35:47Doctor, has she any chance at all?

00:35:50Not a chance

00:35:52This is one of the most brutal cases I've ever seen

00:35:55I've never seen a case like this

00:35:57I've never seen a case like this

00:35:59I've never seen a case like this

00:36:01I've never seen a case like this

00:36:03This is one of the most brutal cases I've ever seen

00:36:06Her face was hacked away, clear to the bone

00:36:09Her eyes were gouged out

00:36:12She's, uh, lost a great deal of blood in a severe shock

00:36:19It's a terrible thing, such a young girl, too

00:36:21Has anyone notified her folks?

00:36:23So far, we, uh, don't know who she is

00:36:26There was no identification on her when the police brought her in

00:36:31Uh, your missing person bureau is checking

00:36:33I wonder if, uh, they'll let you know when they get a report

00:36:36Can we talk to her?

00:36:38You can try, but please make it short

00:36:45Miss? Can you hear me, Miss?

00:36:51Can you hear me? We're police officers

00:36:55We need your help

00:36:57Yes

00:37:00I can hear you

00:37:03What's your name?

00:37:07Janet

00:37:10Janet Blake

00:37:15Who did this to you, Janet?

00:37:17What did the person look like?

00:37:21Wild eyes

00:37:24He had wild eyes

00:37:30I was walking

00:37:34He came from behind a bush

00:37:39Horrible old man

00:37:43He said it was for E.T.R.

00:37:48E.T.R.

00:37:51Doctor

00:38:01I'm afraid it's all over

00:38:16She never had a chance, poor kid

00:38:20An old man with wild eyes

00:38:24Well, at least it's something

00:38:27What do you make of it, Pete?

00:38:29What do you think she meant by E.T.R.?

00:38:32I don't know

00:38:35It could be somebody's name

00:38:39It's strange, though

00:38:41That almost sounds familiar

00:38:47Well, the killer must have thought she was dead

00:38:50It's a miracle she wasn't

00:38:54Well, okay, let's go make a report

00:38:57And every man over 40 with any kind of a record gets picked up for questioning

00:39:01We might come up with something

00:39:05I pray to God we do

00:39:23E.T.R.

00:39:53E.T.R.

00:40:23E.T.R.

00:40:53E.T.R.

00:40:59I would like to speak to Miss Trudy Sanders, please

00:41:06Oh, I see

00:41:08This is quite urgent

00:41:11Could you tell me where she could be reached?

00:41:16Oh, the Fremont residence

00:41:19Yes, I have the number

00:41:22Yes, thank you very much

00:41:32Oh, Ishtar

00:41:34Mother of the Black Sun

00:41:37Tomorrow you shall have life

00:41:42For I, Ramses

00:41:46Shall give you life

00:41:50Only one more thing do I need

00:41:53And the formula will be complete

00:42:20I.E.R.

00:42:23I.E.R.

00:42:26I.E.R.

00:42:29I.E.R.

00:42:32I.E.R.

00:42:35I.E.R.

00:42:38I.E.R.

00:42:41I.E.R.

00:42:44I.E.R.

00:42:47I.E.R.

00:42:50I.E.R.

00:42:53I.E.R.

00:42:56I.E.R.

00:42:59I.E.R.

00:43:02I.E.R.

00:43:05I.E.R.

00:43:08I.E.R.

00:43:11I.E.R.

00:43:14I.E.R.

00:43:17I.E.R.

00:43:20I.E.R.

00:43:26Gee, I sure am excited about that party tomorrow night

00:43:30I wonder what mother has planned

00:43:32I don't know, but your mom certainly acts as if she has thought up a real treat

00:43:37I can hardly wait for this party to start tonight

00:43:40Sounds like a real blast

00:43:44It's getting late, I've got to leave

00:43:47I want to finish shopping before it gets too dark

00:43:50Gets me the shivers when I think of that killer loose somewhere

00:43:54I'm going to get dressed

00:43:57Jane Suzette, do you know what type of party your mother has planned?

00:44:02Well, I'm not sure, but I think I have an idea

00:44:06I'm not supposed to know anything about it

00:44:09I think it's going to be an Egyptian feast

00:44:12Egyptian feast?

00:44:13Yes

00:44:14Well, you know, mom knows how interested I've been in Egyptian culture

00:44:18And how I've been going to these lectures every week

00:44:20Doesn't that sound exciting?

00:44:44BANG!

00:44:50BANG!

00:45:14That's right, Trudy Sanders

00:45:17She's been missing since last night

00:45:19Now, look, I want an all-city alarm

00:45:21And I want to know the moment you hear anything

00:45:24I can only hope it's not the killer

00:45:26Yeah

00:45:27You know, Trudy is a good friend of Suzette Fremont's

00:45:30She said she left her house about 7.30 last night

00:45:33And she never got home, Chief

00:45:35Yes, it looks bad

00:45:38But we'll find her

00:45:40Yes, it looks bad

00:45:42But we're doing everything we can to find her

00:45:45Look, I'm going down and checking the suspects that the boys brought in this morning

00:45:49Keep me posted, Pete

00:45:51Will do

00:46:10BANG!

00:46:11BANG!

00:46:15Hello

00:46:16I'd like to speak to Suzette, please

00:46:18Sure

00:46:21Hello, Suzette

00:46:23B. Thorne

00:46:24Yeah, I know, that's why I called

00:46:26You know, we've been so busy around here that I completely forgot about the dinner party

00:46:30You know, I'll have to be late, honey, if you don't mind

00:46:34Yeah

00:46:36No, honey, I'm sorry

00:46:37We haven't had any word on Trudy's yet

00:46:41Yeah, I know you are, but...

00:46:43Well, try and enjoy yourself anyway

00:46:46Say, uh, just what was the big surprise?

00:46:50Hey, that sounds great

00:46:52Real Egyptian-style stuff, huh?

00:46:55Who?

00:46:57Fouad Ramses?

00:46:58No, never heard of him

00:47:01Oh, just like Dr. Flanders' speech, huh?

00:47:05Ishtar?

00:47:07Well, I hope it isn't exactly like Flanders described it

00:47:11But it does sound like fun and I'll get there as soon as I can, honey, okay?

00:47:15Goodbye, now

00:47:19Ishtar

00:47:37Ishtar

00:47:57And now...

00:47:59Now for the flavor, Ishtar

00:48:03The flavor of blood

00:48:05Of the young guts

00:48:07Dead blood

00:48:10To give life to Ishtar

00:48:24Stop your screaming

00:48:26Stop your screaming, you hear me?

00:48:29Give yourself up to the goddess

00:48:31Give yourself up

00:48:38Give yourself up to the goddess, you hear me?

00:48:41Give yourself up

00:49:07Give yourself up

00:49:09Give yourself up

00:49:11Give yourself up

00:49:38Ishtar

00:49:40Ishtar

00:49:42Ishtar

00:49:45Ishtar

00:49:58Dr. Flanders, this is Pete Thornton. Homicide?

00:50:02Yes, sir

00:50:03I have a few questions I'd like you to help me with, sir

00:50:08Now, you gave a talk last week on the blood feast of Ishtar, the Egyptian goddess

00:50:13Yes, sir

00:50:14The festival

00:50:16Well, could you tell me a little bit more about it?

00:50:26Yes, Dr. Flanders, you've been very helpful, thank you

00:50:28And I have just one more question, sir

00:50:31Have you ever heard of a man called Fuad Ramses?

00:50:35He runs a catering service

00:50:38Oh?

00:50:40Ancient, weird, religious rites, huh?

00:50:44Yeah

00:50:46We found a copy of that on the...

00:50:49No, never mind, sir

00:50:50Thank you, doctor

00:50:51Thank you very much

00:50:57Yeah, Lieutenant Thornton

00:50:58Listen, alert all cars

00:51:00Send them to the vicinity of 45th and Lincoln

00:51:02Place called Ramses Catering

00:51:04And listen, get Mason over here fast

00:51:06I think we got our killer

00:52:05Yeah, yeah, yeah

00:52:28What is it, Pete?

00:52:29Listen, Frank, I got a hunch

00:52:30And if it proves right, I hope you got a strong stomach

00:52:33Come on, Frank, maybe in the back.

00:52:57What in the name of all that's holy is that?

00:53:04That's this star, Frank.

00:53:06The goddess of blood.

00:53:09Find the light, Frank.

00:53:25I'm not mistaken, Frank.

00:53:27That's Trudy Sanders.

00:53:33That's Trudy Sanders.

00:54:04Frank.

00:54:06If I'm right,

00:54:08these are the leftovers from the preparation for the feast of Ishtar.

00:54:14That's a blood feast.

00:54:17They take all the young girls

00:54:21and they cook them to satisfy their goddess.

00:54:25They take all the young girls

00:54:30and they cook them to satisfy their goddess.

00:54:33Oh, no.

00:54:38Holy smoke, Frank.

00:54:40We gotta get over to the Fremont house.

00:54:42They're having a dinner party tonight

00:54:44and Fuad Ramsey's is the caterer.

00:54:47Fuad Ramsey?

00:54:49Well, let's get going.

00:54:50Roberts, Nicholson, Harris, get on that phone.

00:54:53Call the Fremonts.

00:54:55For Pete's sake, tell them not to eat anything.

00:54:58Oh, and try not to make Ramsey suspicious until we get there.

00:55:23Good morning.

00:55:33Come on, Nancy.

00:55:35Mr. Ramsey's about to serve.

00:55:38It's my boyfriend calling long distance.

00:55:41I had him. Now we're cut off.

00:55:43I have to wait.

00:55:45Oh, here's our Mr. Ramsey's now.

00:55:48Ah, this is Fremont's.

00:55:50A joyous occasion.

00:55:53But now I must alert your guests.

00:55:59The feast of Ishtar is about to begin.

00:56:05But to make the feast more authentic,

00:56:12I must ask the cooperation of the young lady

00:56:17in whose honor the feast is given.

00:56:19Oh, me? How exciting.

00:56:23Yes, Mrs. Fremont, it is exciting.

00:56:26And now, if the young lady will accompany me into the kitchen,

00:56:33we will prepare the feast, if you please.

00:56:37Oh, I'll bet there never was a party like this.

00:56:41Ah, but there was, Mrs. Fremont,

00:56:445,000 years ago.

00:56:47Oh, 5,000 years ago.

00:56:54Bill?

00:56:56Bill? Bill?

00:56:58Are you there?

00:57:02Where's all the food?

00:57:04Ah, it, uh, is in the garage, my dear.

00:57:08You see, it would be a desecration

00:57:11to bring it to the house before you bless it.

00:57:15Come.

00:57:17And now, my dear,

00:57:19I would like you to be kind to the will of an old man.

00:57:23As you can see, my dear, I am an old man.

00:57:26And I shall never again have the chance

00:57:30to offer a feast to Ishtar.

00:57:33You see, in the ancient days,

00:57:36it required a young maiden like yourself

00:57:40to be kind to the will of an old man.

00:57:44It required a young maiden like yourself

00:57:47to be offered to bless the feast.

00:57:51How do I do that?

00:57:54Well, it is necessary, my dear,

00:57:57to lie outstretched on an altar.

00:58:01I will prepare this table. This table will do.

00:58:04Allow me to help you.

00:58:07And then you, you lie back.

00:58:11You have your head here.

00:58:14And now, my dear, you must raise your arms to the heavens.

00:58:20And you say,

00:58:22O Ishtar, take me unto yourself.

00:58:27And your eyes must be tightly closed.

00:58:32Is that all?

00:58:34Yes, my dear, that is all.

00:58:37And you will make the heart of an old man glad.

00:58:42Like this?

00:58:45This is fun.

00:58:47Dr. Grander said something in his lecture.

00:58:51Hey, you wouldn't sacrifice me on this altar, would you?

00:58:57Of course not, my dear.

00:59:00Of course not. Lie down.

00:59:08And now, my dear, you must repeat the sacred words.

00:59:14Oh, I've forgotten them.

00:59:18I will repeat them for you.

00:59:21First you must close your eyes.

00:59:24Then you say,

00:59:26O Ishtar,

00:59:29take me unto yourself.

00:59:33Take me unto yourself.

00:59:36And your eyes must be tightly closed.

00:59:43O my Ishtar.

00:59:48This is silly.

00:59:50My dear, please.

00:59:52Do not break the heart of an old man.

00:59:55Your guests are waiting.

00:59:57Oh, I'm sorry.

00:59:59I'll do it.

01:00:02O my Ishtar.

01:00:05Your eyes must be tightly closed

01:00:08so that the image of Ishtar is before you.

01:00:12O my Ishtar,

01:00:17take me unto yourself.

01:00:20Now, O Ishtar,

01:00:23the feast has begun.

01:00:26Oh, Mr. Ramses, I must thank our guests again.

01:00:56O my Ishtar.

01:01:14Suzette? Suzette?

01:01:16Suzette, Mrs. Freeman, are you okay, my dear?

01:01:20Oh, dear.

01:01:23Oh, dear.

01:01:26What's this all about?

01:01:29Ramses was the murderer we were looking for.

01:01:32Mrs. Freeman, I'm afraid this feast is evidence of murder.

01:01:37Oh, dear.

01:01:39The guests will have to eat hamburgers for dinner tonight.

01:01:42Did your men catch him when he ran out?

01:01:44No.

01:01:46We will.

01:01:48I'm afraid I've got some very bad news for you, now listen, we found Trudy, and I'm afraid

01:02:02she was another victim of Ramsey's.

01:02:05Oh Pete, what a horrible, oh I pray that it catches you before it's too late.

01:02:16Oh poor Trudy, oh poor Trudy.

01:02:21Try and get some rest, huh, lay down and get some rest, and then when I get back, we'll

01:02:30have other things to talk about, all right?

01:02:33Okay Pete, let's go get her.

01:02:35Please honey.

01:04:41Pete!

01:04:42Hey, what's happened?

01:04:43You guys run into trouble?

01:04:55What happened?

01:04:57You don't know it, buddy.

01:04:59You just did this town the biggest service it's ever had.

01:05:04Sergeant, notify headquarters that the killer is no more.

01:05:11He died a fitting death.

01:05:13The garbage he was.

01:05:16Pete, how in the world did you figure this out anyway?

01:05:20Well, Frank, I kept remembering the name Itar.

01:05:24You know, the name that girl gave us before she died.

01:05:27Well, Suzette Fremont told me that her mother had planned a real Egyptian feast as a surprise for her.

01:05:33And you know what a bug I am on Egyptian culture.

01:05:36Dr. Flanders gave a talk on the ancient Egyptian goddess Ishtar last week.

01:05:41The names Itar and Ishtar were so similar that I got a hunch.

01:05:46And then Suzette told me that a Fuad Ramses was catering their fare.

01:05:52So I called Dr. Flanders and asked him more about the blood festival of Ishtar.

01:05:56He said he knew of a Fuad Ramses who had written a book called The Ancient Weird Religious Rites.

01:06:02And then I remembered.

01:06:04The book we found next to the body of the girl who was killed in the bathtub.

01:06:07It's the same book.

01:06:09Now, obviously, this man kept a list of the people who wrote for this book.

01:06:14So, Frank, who knows if the spell of this monstrous goddess has possessed anyone else.

01:06:22Lust, murder, food for an ancient goddess who received life through the perverted death of others.

01:06:32Let's go home, Frank.

01:07:02The End
