It is Bigfoot week on . Why call it bigfoot week? It is because we have three listener stories that are all about the big guy. We also have a classic story from The Shadow that has a gorilla as the main character and we top it off with a look at one of the greatest moments in baseball history. Featured Story - The House Of Horrors Our featured story comes from the classic radio series The Shadow. The show went on the air in August of 1930 and kept going for 24 years! Our story is about a plot to entrap the souls of young women, but the Shadow will have none of that. The recording isn’t great, but I loved the story so much that had to share it with you.  It is called, for some inexplicable reason, The House Of Horrors, and it first aired on February 14, 1938.
