By the 1980s, it looks like Mystery Theater put the "fear you can hear" themed episodes on the back burner. The later episodes dealt more with adaptations and historical stories. Such is the case of "His Fourth Wife."

Hans Holbein, the court painter, is commissioned by Henry VIII to produce the portraits of Anne of Cleves and Christina of Denmark. From the two portraits, the king will choose his next wife. Hans’ ability to paint the ladies’ faces -- as well as their innermost feelings -- makes Henry’s choice simple -- and deadly.
