    The "witchcraft" is audio from an episode of Lights Out, a horror/science fiction anthology that began in 1934 under of Wyllis Cooper. In 1936 Arch Oboler took over production duties, and the program lasted until 1947. It would be produced for radio from 1947-1949.
    It's most memorable for having really graphic special effects sounds...human beings being turned inside out, etc.
    The episode you have is "The Chicken Heart," in which a tiny piece of chicken heart has been kept alive in a laboratory, until it starts to grow, and grow, and grow...until it consumes the world.
    Hans Conried stars as Dr. Calvin, the scientist who was experimenting on a chicken heart, before it became the chicken heart.

      @@abcephei It also was a story element in Fat Albert! cartoon. One of the characters tells a camp fire story about a mutant chicken heart that grows til eat "eats" New York. It seemed such a ridiculous premise and plot, I was sure it was made up just for Fat Albert. Hearing that it was a real '40s radio show is very surreal.

      Wait, didn't Bill Cosby have a comedy bit that referenced this? I recall a record of him talking about when he was a kid. He would describe it, "Chicken Heart... Thump thump... Chicken Heart...". I last heard that maybe back in the '70s.

They tape it closed and won't let you check it before buying it (they keep it all locked in a glass case at the regiater), no refunds and charge you anywhere from $10 on up for the gamble on if you're gonna actually get what you paid for or just an empty box. And that's on the very rare occasion they actually get that stuff in. Otherwise it's broken baby stuff, Target's overstock, or someone's massive used underwear collection....
