Retro Radio: Old Time Radio in the Dark

A psychic detective investigates a Surrey manor haunted by a vicious poltergeist — and meets his match.

A 19th‑century ghost‑buster (i.e., a psychic detective) named Flaxman Low is called to a manor in Surrey, England. The estate’s owner believes the place is being terrorized by a violent and aggressive poltergeist. When he arrives, Low finds himself going toe-to-toe with this malevolent entity—and things quickly escalate. It’s a supernatural showdown in a classic ghostly mansion from CBS Radio Mystery Theater! | #RetroRadio EP0487
