Reminds me of when I was a kid listening to my radio next to my bed at night!
The shows were already 40 years old then!!! They scared me then and they are VERY ENTERTAINING now. Sure they’re dated but that’s some of the fun of listening. They’re where Podcasts came from...My VERY FAVE are the CBS Radio Mysteries.

Writing - storytelling - talent - production
The theatre of the mind has been a place I've gone my entire life - these recordings are a world in sound - consistently compelling - I've listened for decades through the night. This is one of the best radio/podcast shows ever! Listen & learn

I have been listening to cbs mystery theater for several years. I listened to it at night to help with my racing thoughts that made falling asleep very difficult. The shows are for the most part really good and interesting. They are like an old friend when I can't sleep.

Glad I found this podcast. I love radio theatre, mysteries and horror especially, and I have listened to other radio mystery/horror theatre podcasts that just did not have such high quality, well written stories. While many other podcasts of this nature feature stories that have me either rolling my eyes or rolling with laughter at the beyond ludicrous farce of a plot ( not that I'm blaming the people compiling them for the writing). Yet still it is advertised as a horror/mystery and not a comedy. I can can honestly say though, that the stories featured here are so engaging and well executed that I have more than once found myself gripped in suspense, or fear and checking over my shoulders in a dimly lit room. I am more than delighted in never having to fear when select an episode, because they are all pretty excellent...so far. :)
P.S. more Inner Sanctum please those are great, especially the host.
