I just had to make another comment I'm 72 now I listen to these and they put me to sleep I remember a lot of them from when I was young

I also listen to them when I go to bed. I actually fall asleep to them sometimes ...& then, when I wake up during the wee early morning hours...I turn to Dan Jones adult sleep stories, to tip me into the “sleep zone”. 😴

When I was about 10 or 11 in the early 70s' I would spend the night with my aunt and sometimes I would sleep in the bed with her and she would have the radio on and I would fall asleep listening to these stories.....this really brings back a lot of fond memories.

Thanks for your comment, Beatlesfanize. I agree, these shows are great, I used to love listening to CBS Radio Mystery Theater at night. We had old vinyl records of a few of the Suspense and Lights Out shows. They should bring mystery radio back!

You know what's almost as entertaining as listening to these shows at night, on my headphones? Reading all the comments from people reminiscing about days gone by. Very comforting, interesting vignettes of childhood...particularly in the 70's when I was little, too. Thanks, EdgeofNightFall!!!!

I discovered Mystery Theater in 1980, when I was 14, in Portland, Oregon. I’d listen to these shows every night for about two years on a beautiful 1980 Sony box radio my father bought for me. They helped develop my imagination snd helped me to become a writer and author later on. These are such wonderful radio programs…

Weren't the 1970's the greatest time to be a kid? My cousin and I would stay the night in his tree house in the summer and listen to CBS Mystery Theater. We once got so scared after listening to MT, that we had to go into the house to sleep. 1968-1975 were the best years of my life!

The kids in the neighborhood would have sleep-overs in the summertime. We would be in tents in the backyard reading comic books by flashlight and eating snacks. When it got closer to midnight one of us would turn on the battery powered radio and tune into CBS Radio Mystery Theater, or Arch Obeler's Light's out series. Our young imaginations would run wild listening to the thrilling tales of mystery and horror. It was amazing that we ever got to sleep.

The thunderstorm sound effects were taken directly from the 1964 Disney LP CHILLING, THRILLING SOUNDS of the HAUNTED HOUSE! On the LP jacket it says the sound effects 'can be used for free for spooky Halloween parties'. I guess CBS decided to take them up on it. It's a bit of a stretch from kids' Halloween parties to CBSRMT episodes but CBS was no doubt mesmerized by that magic word: FREE! It was used in a number of the episodes that required a severe thunderstorm sequence.

Had to muffle the transistor under my pillow to listen to these forbidden horrifying dramas alone in the dark. Scared myself nightly since I was a 10 year old 5th grader til I was a junior in HS. Used to love all the wise expressions and twisted ironies narrated by EG Marshall. Thanks to the internet I can hear them again.

On the east coast in the late 70's. I remember listening to this with my Dad on WOR NY radio. It was the time of seeing Salem's Lot on tv, hanging out at the Haunted Mansion in Long Branch, collecting Mego Super Heroes Action Figures, reading Tomb of Dracula and Famous Monsters of Filmland, Hot summer nights with no air conditioner, PBS Cinema 13 Horror w/host Kevin Conway (the barker from the horror film The Fun House in 1981) every Sat at 10pm and Thursday (later), Chiller Theater on WPIX 11.

I have been thrilled and fascinated by RMT since the mid-1970s, when I first heard it on my bedside clock radio, probably around age 8-10. I had run through the AM dial to track down a signal. This was usually on Friday nights, the only night that wasn't a school night that I would have been able to be up late enough to hear the broadcasts at 11 p.m. or midnight (on the East Coast) after having gone to bed. I found the opening, closing and interstitial music to be truly scary and unsettling. There was a wonderful intimacy and romance (in the classical sense of the word) to listening to these alone in my bedroom late at night. (One of the first I remember hearing was of a cat who turned into a woman.) I never had a friend or knew anyone who took the same interest in these that I did. It's nice to see others who did and do, even if it is over 40 years later.
