NOTE: Episodes in this series are low quality. You can still hear and understand the story, but some people may find the quality distracting. But you have to expect some degradation when listening to something that is almost 100 years old!

Step back to 1931 and experience the complete 13-episode Frankenstein radio serial that aired the same year as the legendary Boris Karloff film—a rarely heard vintage horror dramatization starring George Edwards as Baron Victor Frankenstein.
