Back beside the Cauldron for another episode of midcentury horror radio? Always a wise decision, but especially wise this week, as we read through "The Diary of Sophronia Winters" from the series Suspense. Starring the greatest radio voice actor of all time, one of the most famous radio writers of all time, and the highest number of possible interpretations of an ending that we've ever encountered.

File under: no less than 8

Hello and welcome back to Cauldronside, where The Ghost of Radio is ready to pull out another episode of midcentury horror radio for (y)our approval - but it turns out this time around the Cauldron is a little different: we're going to compare and contrast the ways two different shows told the same story, and judge who wore it best.

File under: silly, sick, spooky--how to choose?

Time to welcome you back to the Cauldron for another go-round with midcentury horror radio. This week it's "The Line Is Dead" from Murder at Midnight, a truly "organic" series that we've enjoyed before. Will this week deliver the goods? We'll just have to listen and make that... call... together.

Hello and welcome to The Ghost of Radio - glad you came to join us around the Cauldron of midcentury horror radio episodes we have so lovingly brewed up. This week, we're pulling out "The Evil of Adelaide Winters", from the series Suspense. It's good and evil, it's true and a lie, it's every complicated double-edged sword you can imagine and it will fall on you like a ton of bricks. But don't worry--we'll all be here to help you through to... the other side.

It's Cauldron time again here at The Ghost of Radio, where midcentury horror radio is our bread and butter. This week, we'll be visiting "Lanceford House", from the series Beyond Midnight.  How long will we stay there before we make our choice about whether to bring about our own death--or before the choice is made for us?
