My friend the columnist and EWTN presenter KV Turley LOVES radio… ALL radio but especially those classic gems that were performed LIVE! in studios with sound effect guys in the next room and a small orchestra on call if when needed. KV has a love for the mysterious and horrifying and once shared with me his theory that Bram Stoker’s Dracula is a documentary (believe it or not there is strong evidence for this claim). Well KV along with mystery author & BOOsade Channel presenter Fiorella Nash have gathered the 20 most terrifying radio dramas ever broadcast and recorded and our BOOsade Channel will broadcast them all, commercial free beginning Halloween at 02:00 pm east and you can listen FREE!
The BOO!sade Channel Terror Fest Popup Station features the same Dracula from Orson Welles!
FEATURE PRESENTATIONS
Did you know? The Mercury Theatre on the Air was founded by Orson Welles and ran for 22 episodes in 1938 not just “War of The Worlds”!
Dracula – This was the very first episode of The Mercury Theater on the Air with Orson Welles playing the roles of both Dr Seward and Count Dracula. Although it aired in July, its horror is fit for Halloween.
Sorry, Wrong Number — Upon its premiere in 1943 this episode of Suspense became the most popular and successful of the series. Eventually being not just re-aired but re-performed seven times after its original airing.
Lights Out ran for 13 years, from 1934 to 1947, and eventually transitioned into a television show. The show was created by NBC writer Wyllis Cooper, who also created Quiet, Please
Cat Wife - Voted as "the best" by listeners of the Lights Out series. A husband's feline-like wife goes too far. This broadcast has an amazing performance by Boris Karloff and an even better one by the actress who stars as his wife.
Escape ran from 1947-1954, ultimately airing about 230 episodes.
Three Skeleton Key — This tale set on a lonely island-lighthouse off the coast of South America first aired in 1949. It stars Vincent Price. Widely considered one of the great classics of this genre.
The Mysterious Traveler ran for over 370 episodes, from 1943-1952. Unfortunately, only 75 or so of those episodes still exist today.
The Good Die Young — This episode is unnerving (and was voted as such in a popular old time radio forum). A father brings home a new wife, much to the surprise and chagrin of his teenage daughter.
Quiet, Please! was created by Wyllis Cooper, also known for creating Lights Out. Ernest Chappell was the show's announcer and lead actor. Quiet, Please! was first broadcast by on June 8, 1947 by the Mutual Broadcasting System, and its last episode ran on June 25, 1949, by ABC. A total of 106 shows were broadcast
The Thing on the Fourble Board - The process of drilling for oil produces the deepest holes in the Earth ever created. What is it down there, deep in the past, at the bottom of the hole? Is it just rock and oil, or is there something else being brought up out of the core of the Earth?
HAPPY VIGIL OF ALL HALLOWS, Y’ALL FROM THE BOO!SADE CHANNEL!
