“Pollock and the Porroh Man” — Originally a short story by the famed H.G. Wells, the tale opens with a man named Pollock being visited by a friend in London. The pair had traveled to Africa some months back, during which Pollock was a normal, if arrogant, fellow. Now, however, it was obvious to the friend that Pollock was disturbed — clearly the events in Africa had gotten to him. You see, Pollock had a curse placed upon him for stealing an idol; he tried to rid himself of the curse, but didn’t quite follow the necessary protocol, and was haunted all the way back to London. The friend tries to convince Pollock that it’s all in his head — but is it? There’s only one way to find out.

“Three Skeleton Key” — This rat-infested tale is set on a lonely island-lighthouse off the coast of South America. Originally a short story, this adaptation first appeared on Escape in 1949, and it was re-performed three times on that show, and another two times on Suspense. Narrated by famous radio man Vincent Price, it tells the tale of three men who are manning the lighthouse. They see a seemingly deserted ship coming towards their rocks, and when the ship breaks on their island, they come to discover that the crew has in fact been taken over and replaced by hundreds…no, thousands…of rats. The squealing sound effects will have you squirming in your chair as you listen.

“Knock at the Door” — There’s something especially haunting about a dainty-sounding woman becoming psychotic and pushing her mother-in-law down a well. This tale is narrated by Ella, our murderer, as she describes her descent into madness — how she married a nice fellow named Jay, how Jay brought his mother home unannounced to live with them, and how Ella soon felt pushed out of the way by their guest. Our narrator, after hearing some convincing voices in her head, pushes her poor mother-in-law down a well and seemingly doesn’t have to deal with her anymore. But oh how wrong she is when the fair couple hears a knock at the door while eating dinner one night…

“Murder Castle” — An especially chilling episode, “Murder Castle” is unique because it’s based on the true story of H. H. Holmes — the mass murderer who haunted Chicago during the time of the 1893 world’s fair. The story was made famous more recently by Erik Larson’s book,The Devil in the White City. This particular dramatization features a young woman, Ella Malone, who’s been picked up by police, and is muttering the word “revenge” over and over and over again. We then cut to a gentleman, Henry Stewart, who is interviewing a series of prospective housemaids and nurses who are promised a job, but ultimately have gone missing…Ms. Malone has an idea of what might be going on, and tries to dig deeper into the mystery all on her own. The menace in Stewart’s voice is masterfully done over the airwaves, and hard to convey in mere words on the internet. Give it a listen for yourself, if you dare.

“Sorry, Wrong Number” — This episode of Suspense was its most popular and successful, eventually being not just re-aired, but re-performed seven times after its original premiere in 1943. It’s a fairly simple tale of a woman trying to call her husband’s office at night to check in and find out when he’s coming home. The telephone switchboard wires get crossed somehow and she ends up listening in on a conversation she definitely should not be hearing. There are some unintended consequences, and this story has another ending that will leave you a little bit shocked.
