The dialogue in all these vintage radio shows are excellent

Great job, I like the art work, the sound is great, the date and episode number are listed. I was lessening to CBS Radio Mystery Theater when it first aired. I have downloaded all 1399 episodes, big fan!

[@waltercoleman7838]

I remember my Jr high English teacher telling me about the mystery theatre shorty after it originally started. Glad I took his advice

[@Nikes62]

Russell Horton’s range shows brilliantly in two roles here. I’m his biggest New Zealand fan!

[@JustFluffyQuiltingYarnCrafts]

Interesting story. TFS!

6 June 2024 - Listening from the beautiful Blue Grass state, Kentucky, USA. Great episode. It’s the 80th anniversary of D-Day, when American troops stormed the Nazi-held beaches of Normandy. Freedom is NOT free. 🌊 🌊🌊

*“Once Upon an Island”* Episode: 1052 Originally broadcast: 21 January 1980 Written by: Elspeth Eric Starring: Norman Rose, Russell Horton, and Diana Kirkwood. A couple honeymooning on an island in the Caribbean become curious about the local legend of the "shining ghost.”

[@trixylabelle8442]

Thankyou inkyguy for giving us a little clue what this ones about. 🤗

[@active6302]

This episode is about a Philosophy Pfofessor who relocates to a small Caribbean Island, builds himself a house and lives quite peacefully except for the abandoned Plantation House on his property which he suspects is haunted. A visit from his newly married niece and her husband seems to confirm this. There, did your job von Pein.

[@sleetarashi]

This sounds a lot like The "Shining Man" episode that was also broadcasted on this program

[@DVPOldTimeRadio]

Yes, it is. I have both episodes on my channel, and I like them both. They're obviously based on the same basic script, but with slight differences.

Ghosts never pretend to be pretty. Though maybe they are to themselves or to one another. And it is only to us that they appear grotesque and horrible. And that's not their fault. It is only limitation of our own. The fault likes not in our ghosts but in us.

4/20/22 WOW I need my Buspirone.

[@tuquang.5203]

I heard the original. Aside from the racism it was better.

[@frankmcgovern5445]

Dr. Martinez is apparently one of those French Puerto Ricans.

[@ronparel9129]

LOL, thought the same, except Mexican with French accent
