Let’s give this a shot! October is the perfect month to try and launch the #FediOTRClub where each week I will curate two hours worth of Old Time Radio stories for Fedi to listen to. Feel free to comment in with the hashtag when you get to listen, hoping commentary will help me pick future weeks shows. For October specifically I’m starting with the theme of #ChillingDaysOfYesteryear with classic horror and thriller shows all month.

1) “Sorry Wrong Number” – Suspense, May 25, 1943 (Starring Agnes Moorehead)
“The first broadcast of this thriller classic. Probably the best remembered program of the series. A bed ridden disabled woman battles the frustrations of the telephone system after she overhears a plot to murder someone!”

2) “Three Skeleton Key” – Escape, March 17, 1950 (Starring Vincent Price)
“This classic takes place on a remote lighthouse where the three light keepers that inhabit it suddenly have to deal with a ghost ship carrying thousands of rats that crashes into their Island key.”

3) “The Midnight Horseman” – Macabre, December 11, 1961. (fairly obscure program produced by the Armed Forces Radio and Television Service – Far East Network)
“A good screamer. A painting of a black knight...with occult powers! (The announcer mentions that it's Halloween, indicating a possible rebroadcast at a later date.)”
Listen:

4) “Return Trip” – Murder by Experts, September 19, 1949 (has also been dated September 5)
“The chilling story about an escaped homicidal maniac and a bus full of people trapped by an avalanche.”

Feel to use any either hashtag to discuss this weeks shows and give me any feedback to help me curate future weeks.

We’ve another suggestion for a great tale for #AudioFictionSunday this week, and it’s once again a favorite of our curator, @evoterra:

Miracle on 34th Street: The Radio Play, a dramatized heartwarming Christmas drama from Elizabeth Hansen & Dramafy. I've actually never seen the movie of the same name. So, while listening to this was a welcome Xmas treat, it also filled a hole in my cultural awareness!

In that magical month between Thanksgiving and Christmas, a "department store" Santa, who claims to be the real Santa Claus, disrupts the commercialistic workings of Macy's Department store, and in so doing, touches the hearts of a cynical woman and her daughter.

• Series complete as of Dec 6, 2022
• 1 season, 3 episodes
• Listening time: 1h 17m
• 🎅🏻👧🏼❤️
