Chandu the Magician
The Slave Auction
by
Chandu the Magician follows Frank Chandler, an American who has learned the secrets of mysticism in India and uses his unusual abilities to fight crime and protect the innocent. Known as Chandu, he is joined in his adventures by his sister-in-law, Princess Nadji, and her brother, Bobby Regent.
The program is a serialized radio adventure, blending mystery, danger, and exotic settings with the supernatural skills at the heart of Chandu’s work. Episodes carry the larger story forward while placing the characters in perilous situations involving villains, hidden schemes, and the need for quick thinking.
Its appeal lies in the contrast between pulp-style action and Chandu’s calm, resourceful presence. The dramatic narration and sound effects give the adventures a vivid, suspenseful feel, making this a lively choice for listeners who enjoy classic radio mysteries with a touch of the occult.
