As Fall weather creeps into Tennessee and October winds begin to blow leaves
around the neighborhood my thoughts turn to all things scary and spooky. Halloween is my favorite holiday and as much
as I love watching horror and monster films or reading creepy stories I also
enjoy listening to old radio horror shows. I usually listen to several each
month during the rest of the year but in October I check out three or four a
week on the old iPod!
I love sharing these very well written and well produced
pieces of 'Theater of the Mind' and so with this episode of The Bloody Pit I
have picked out two of my favorites for you to hear. Both are adaptations of
classic horror tales - one from H. P. Lovecraft and the other from M. R. James-
and both are fantastic! Casting the Runes was done in 1947 for the Escape
program and The Dunwich Horror was recorded for Suspense in 1945 and you won't
find finer radio shows no matter how long you search. So, settle in and listen
to a couple of creepy tales of terror well calculated to keep you in......
suspense!
Please feel free to write to the podcast at

below or gotten from iTunes. Thanks for listening!
