Jon Hall stars as Dr. Reynolds (known as Ramar to the natives) in four episodes from the second and final season of the popular 1950's adventure series.

Local legend tells that the recipient of the sinister omen will die when the mark disappears. As the Professor begins to feel his life slip away, Dr. Reynolds races against time to unlock the secrets of Shaitan before his friend succumbs to the curse. The most well-known episode of the series, "The Mark of Shaitan" is the first episode to feature Ramar in India. The Hidden Treasure: A fellow doctor's house-boy is brutally murdered.

The Bride Of The Idol: A friend of Zahir is kidnapped by a pagan cult which intends to make her the bride of the vengeful God, Shanda. Ramar and Professor Ogden set out to save the girl from a horrific fate. The Crocodile God Of Kaa: Ramar takes on the evil worshippers of the Crocodile God of Kaa, who have been kidnapping villagers and threatening to sacrifice them if a hefty ransom is not paid. The Crocodile Men have superhuman strength, which has helped to keep the locals in a state of fearful submission. Ramar risks his life in an attempt to discover the secret to this power and end the reign of terror.
