  "account": "After the cancellation of Bewitched in 1972, veteran actress Agnes Moorehead continued her career with a variety of projects. That same year, she starred in the Southern Gothic horror film Dear Dead Delilah, playing the titular character's mother. Moorehead also took on roles in two made-for-TV movies, Rolling Man and Night of Terror, as well as a memorable guest appearance on the Emmy-winning medical drama Marcus Welby, M.D. She showcased her voice talents in the animated film Charlotte's Web, where she voiced the fussy chatterbox Goose. Moorehead's Broadway career flourished during this time, with roles in George Bernard Shaw's Don Juan in Hell and the musical adaptation of Gigi. She also appeared in the TV movie Frankenstein: The True Story and the TV anthology film Rex Harrison Presents Stories of Love. Despite her busy schedule, Moorehead battled uterine cancer behind the scenes. Her final professional performance was in The Old Ones Are Hard to Kill, the inaugural broadcast episode of CBS Radio Mystery Theater, on January 6, 1974. She made her last voice recording in the January 26, 1974, episode The Ring of Truth. Agnes Moorehead passed away on April 30, 1974, at the age of 73, reportedly due to cancer stemming from her exposure to fallout from atomic bomb testing during The Conqueror filming.",
