Not As Brightly Lit

We take another dive into old time radio this week with a pretty different take on voodoo dolls. From Hall of Fantasy, we'll listen to The Dance of the Devil Dolls. Originally broadcast February 9th, 1953.

Venturing back down the old time radio rabbit hole, Rob play's an episode of 'The Creaking Door' called 'Alive in the Grave'. Originally broadcast on November 30th, 1964. It's the story of theft and premature burial... you know everyday stuff.

It's time to look at one of Halloween's most beloved traditions, Pillsbury's SPOOKY COOKIES!

Rob returns from his medically forced hiatus to just generally talk about Halloween stuff he likes. 

More signs of Halloween 2021 are being seen prompting Rob to play an episode of Quiet Please from Halloween night 1948. The story is named 'Calling All Souls', get it?

WE HAVE A CODE ORANGE, I REPEAT CODE ORANGE. HALLOWEEN MERCHANDISE IS BEING SPOTTED! In addition to Rob talking about some of the early Halloween stuff he's been seeing, he talks about some of the spooky stuff he likes from various stores each season. The best time of the year is starting up, everybody hop in your Doom Buggy and enjoy the ride! 

A sudden migraine inspires Rob to revisit an older episode of the show that many haven't heard. The plastic vampire fang, one of Halloween's most hallowed traditions. 

Rob talks about the newest early peaks of Halloween merchandise hitting stores. Then we listen to an episode of Weird Circle called "The Doll". Originally airing on November 10 1944, it's a story of an evil doll that's a little different than others.

Things are starting to get spooky as Rob talks about the first inklings of the Halloween season that he's found locally. Then we listen to an episode of Inner Sanctum from 10/31/1949 called 'A Corpse For Halloween'. It may be hot outside, but it's a brisk autumn day in our minds!
