--------------------
CBS Radio MYSTERY THEATRE is a radio drama series created and directed by Himan Brown that was broadcast on CBS Radio Network affiliates from 1974 to 1982. Later in the early 2000s the show was repeated by the NPR satellite feed.
The format was similar to that of classic old time radio shows like The Mysterious Traveler and The Whistler, in that the episodes were introduced by host E. G. Marshall who provided pithy wisdom and commentary throughout. Unlike the hosts of those earlier programs, Marshall is fully mortal, merely someone whose heightened insight and erudition plunge the listener into the world of the macabre.
CBS Radio MYSTERY THEATRE was broadcast each weeknight, at first with a new program each night. Later in the run, three or four episodes were new originals each week, and the remainder repeats. There were 1,399 original episodes.

I grew up off grid(when off grid wasn't cool) in the Sierra Nevada mountains. In the evenings, my parents would play cards and us kids would color or play board games while we all listened to this and other radio programs. I'm so happy to have found these and have been listening to them...I have listened to a few I remember...most I don't remember...it was the 70's since I last heard these!

Just home from busy night at work & the mystery theatre helps release all my stress of the day, thank you ❤️💚

[@davezins98]

I was 14 when this first came out. October and definitely Halloween was always Edgar Allen Poe week. To find this treasure again after 45+ years is a blessing! Old radio programming updated to the "modern" 1970s was great. It still holds up!

[@LydiaStarz]

I too was 14 at that Halloween...I wore my mom's wig I remember!Surprised about the news of Nixon in critical condition!

Back in the 80s, I caught this show on the radio after listening to the Doctor Dimento show right before falling asleep.

The Black Room - I've had pet mice before. (There's stories there. Hahaha). This one reminds me of a quote, "if you have done it unto the least of these, you have done it unto me."

Again, I looked on your channel last night and did not see a premier coming up, so I didn't go look at 10pm, figuring there wasn't going to be one, and later found out there was one. Is yt not showing it or what? Because I always check, and then get surprised when it happens.

[@spellbinders_of_suspense]

This one wasn’t a live premiere. I just had it ready and needed to work on some other stuff so I went ahead and posted it. 🦇🙂

In The Demon Spirit, Simon is rhe guy who did the Pathmark supermarket commercials in the Philly/NJ area. I think he also did Smuckers jelly commercials. In my mind, he is typecast, kinda hard to believe any of his characters, not saying je is good actor.
