Back again on Halloween 2020 to binge THE WITCH’S TALE! Thanks so much for these wonderful old historic shows, they don’t go unappreciated. Wish I could experience this in 1932 when radio was still new, no tv or internet, I’ll bet people really looked forward to these weekly broadcasts!

My absolute favorite old radio show, besides “Archie”. Thanks again for all the wonderful antique stuff you post ❤️🙏🏼🎃

old time radio was great and i will always love it

That was fantastic. I love these old gems.

The radio script was re-written as a short story & published in Weird Tales magazine for November 1941, illustrated by Harry Ferman. Here's the editor's introduction: "From THE WITCH'S TALE--that highly popular radio broadcast which thrilled you so often over the air--comes a story specially adapted for the magazine by that famous program's author and director, Alonzo Deen Cole."

That is so awesome! Thanks for the info. One of my favorite series. Can't believe this show aired so long ago.

Glad you're a fan of WEIRD TALES, Robert. I believe The Witch's Tales itself tried it also, as a magazine to compete with WT, but it failed quickly. In any case, it's great to see so many various classic old-time radio shows here; many of them were lost in the old days.

A personal favorite. Thanks for sharing.

I do not know of any radio suspense / horror dramas older than the "Witches Tale" nor better.

+Jonathan Michael No Problem! Will try an post more from this series! Thanks for taking the time to listen!

Brought you an extra rich cream Satan! Brought you a new broom Nancy!🌙🦇🐍🐙🧜‍♀️🌊

Super!

Very early on one of the first on Radio.

Thought I had heard all the "Witch's Tales," but this is a new one to me. Classic show and thanks for sharing it! By the way, Bette Davis did a lot of radio during the Golden Age. Do you have any episodes of her in, "Whispering Streets?"

Another thing. I have written and been published a lot on Michigan Indian history and so particularly loved this episode. Back in the late 1990s I wrote and produced a radio demo on Michigan Mysteries for WKNX Radio here in Saginaw, Michigan. I would love to upload this to You Tube but I don't know how to combine the audio with a photograph so that I can up load it. Any advisement????

This is one of my favorite horror series. Unfortunately, the overt racism of this episode hasn't aged well, so this is not one I'll be revisiting.

I think it’s an anti racist and anti sexist message.

It’s a morality tale.

Interesting. I suppose it's possible I misread it. I confess I don't quite recall the specifics of my objection, as I listened 6 months ago.
