I've never heard of this so am very excited to have a chance to listen to something recommended as being seriously scary. I do enjoy my thrills. Thanks for sharing!

The Vengeful Corpse, a 1949 Inner Sanctum mystery which told of how a young woman became possessed by the spirit of an old witch from Salem, Mass. It was one of the first shows in my collection that I got from a friend who used to do big band remotes for Duke Ellington. In those days, you had the shows on reel to reel tape or cassette. My friend had a large collection from which I would make my selections and then he would "cue" up the tape to transfer it to a cassette. I recall this particular show because at one point, the young woman screams when the witch enters her body. I was listening to it when my wife came in behind me, and gave out with a maniacal cackle. I jumped about a foot. I remember fondly because it was from that era that I woud have been listening to it, under the blankets.

I have to agree with you, Paul, about "The Thing on the Fourble Board" being the scariest otr for me. The sound effects of the creature was just about the creepiest thing I ever heard. My hair, what's left of it that is, is just now settling down."The City of the Dead" on Adventures By Morse had some eerie moments too, but nothing like "The Thing..." did.

This was an amazing story - very Lovecraftian and steeped in the unexplained!

I'll have to search for my favorite scary otr and post it here. Thanks!

snt plays!

Hi Attempting to upload a play to Whodunnit!

New here!

My grandfather was an engineer at Detroit's WJR from 1943 until sometime in the 1970s. Beginning in 1943, he kept any of the on-air transcription discs that interested him, and also made his own copies and compilations of music and programs. I've inherited his collection of over 250 glass- and aluminum- based transcription discs and am finally in the process of transferring them to digital.

I have complete shows of programs like American Melody Hour, Meet the Missus (a local Detroit program), S…

No emails

Has anybody experienced this problem? I have not received emails from TimesPast in over 2 weeks now. I have been receiving emails on a regular basis announcing posts of new programs, and other group actions, but suddenly, the emails stopped coming in. Sure, I can go to the site and look for myself to see what's new, but I miss the emails.
If anybody else has had this problem please let me know. I love this site, but have felt left out of the loop lately.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

Hi I really need help so if anyone can that would be great!! My grandfather who is 82 recorded an opera song for the bbc back in the late 1950's. He not very well and i think it would really mean a lot to him if he got to hear the song again. So does anybody know where old recordings are stored and if there are any ideas of who i should contact?. Thank u X
