- Unknown Broadcast | The Lost Ship & State Executioner: Desert Treasure and a Haunted HangmanTwo fugitives chase desert treasure while a royal hangman struggles with the voices of the dead. Unknown Broadcast presents “The Lost Ship” and “State Executioner,” vintage dramas from Suspense and Lights Out. Harry and Viola hope a stranded Spanish galleon can offer escape from their troubles, but the wasteland makes every detour costly. Samuel Jones faces a different reckoning as years of executions invade his conscience. These fictional tales join greed, guilt and psychological horror: one pair cannot stop looking for something buried, while another man cannot escape what he remembers.

Story submissions: [email protected]50 min - Annabel Lee by Edgar Allan Poe: Love, Death & a Kingdom by the SeaA grieving lover remembers Annabel Lee in a kingdom by the sea, insisting that death cannot break their bond. Hear Edgar Allan Poe’s classic poem in a brief spoken-word reading that moves between tenderness, jealousy and Gothic obsession. The speaker blames envious angels for his loss and finds reminders of his beloved in moonlight, stars and the shore. Musical repetition makes the memory feel both intimate and inescapable. Is this devotion that outlasts the grave, or grief that cannot release the living? Poe’s haunting seaside romance leaves room to hear both.

Story submissions: [email protected]5 min - Newborn — A Vampire Bride Awakens in StrickfieldYou wake after a Strickfield party with missing memories, no reflection and a hunger ordinary food cannot satisfy.

A stranger from the party, a friend who knows more than she first admits and an invitation that suddenly matters all point toward an undead existence Eliza never understood. The vampire Arbogast offers a place among his brides, but this new family has dangers of its own. Follow a young woman’s first steps into a night that may never end.

Story submissions: [email protected]42 min - Terrifying & True | Thierry Tilly — The Conman Who Captured an Aristocratic FamilyThierry Tilly persuaded members of France’s de Védrines family that hidden enemies were plotting against them, then used that fear to control their relationships, work and fortune. Terrifying & True follows the manipulation from the family’s château at Monflanquin to their isolation in Oxford. Promises of protection escalated into coercion and abuse before an escape helped expose the scheme. This account examines how a trusted adviser gained such power—and how the family began to break free. Tilly was ultimately convicted of crimes including fraud and torture.
Written by Morgan Moore. We're telling that story tonight.

Story submissions: [email protected]16 min - Unknown Broadcast | Carnival in Vienna & Chicken Heart — Crime and Science-Fiction HorrorA carnival employee sees a chance to steal a fortune; a laboratory experiment threatens to swallow the world. Unknown Broadcast pairs “Carnival in Vienna” from Escape with Arch Oboler’s “Chicken Heart” from Lights Out. Johnny Allison’s scheme involves a sabotaged Ferris wheel, stolen identification and a laughing mechanical clown in postwar Austria. Then living tissue grows beyond containment in a classic science-fiction nightmare. These vintage radio dramas trade the glitter of a midway for the dread of a laboratory, linking criminal ambition with a catastrophe no one knows how to stop.

Story submissions: [email protected]40 min - The Happiest Day by Edgar Allan Poe: Pride, Power & Joy Already LostCan a happy memory become painful simply because it can never return? Hear Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Happiest Day” in a brief spoken-word reading about vanished pride, lost hope and the distance between youth and the present. The speaker looks back on a moment of glory while love and friendship seem to have lost their warmth. Repeated references to the happiest day make the contrast with his wounded heart increasingly stark. This melancholy poem offers a quieter encounter with Poe, where the haunting comes from memory and the conviction that life’s brightest hour has already passed.

Story submissions: [email protected]4 min - Horror at the Hexagon House Inn: Haunted Letters from 1934 Black SpringsHenry Noble’s letters from a Texas inn begin as a writer’s observations and become a record of mounting terror. In Bill Spears’s “Horror at the Hexagon House Inn,” Henry and Victoria leave Chicago in 1934, hoping Black Springs’ dry air will help her persistent cough. Their six-sided lodging soon offers stranger concerns: footsteps, moving furniture and a past that refuses to stay outside their room. This historical ghost story unfolds through correspondence, combining Depression-era atmosphere with possession and buried violence. How much can a letter explain when its author no longer trusts what he sees?

Story submissions: [email protected]31 min - Terrifying & True | The Lake Bodom Murders — Finland’s Unsolved Camping MassacreThree young campers were murdered at Finland’s Lake Bodom in June 1960; their injured companion, Nils Gustafsson, survived. Terrifying & True revisits the lakeside attack, the troubled crime scene and the evidence that drew investigators back decades later. Gustafsson was prosecuted and acquitted in 2005, and the killings remain unsolved. This account separates the known events from suspicions surrounding one of Finland’s best-known murder mysteries. Missing possessions, disputed interpretations and unanswered questions still shape the search for an explanation. We're telling that story tonight.

Story submissions: [email protected]21 min - Unknown Broadcast | Something on His Mind & The Silver Shoe: Borneo Revenge and a Ghostly DoubleJealousy makes a Borneo homecoming dangerous, while an impossible resemblance draws a grieving man toward a stranger. Unknown Broadcast presents “Something on His Mind” from Beyond Midnight and “The Silver Shoe” from Suspense. The first drama turns a plantation love triangle into an insect-driven revenge nightmare. The second asks why a woman looks exactly like someone already buried—and how a silver keepsake could have escaped her coffin. These fictional stories pair tropical body horror with a mystery of identity and mourning. Desire clouds judgment in both, but the threats take very different forms.
