Free App Radio Mystery Theater - audioStream

The CBS Radio Mystery indeed heralded the revival of the Golden Age of Radio.

With the fine actor E. G. Marshall as the host, the series brought

back those great days of mystery, suspense, drama and a touch of history. At

first it aired daily, a monumental task when you consider this. But after some

six years it went to five times a week. Mr. Marshall hosted the series

until its final year when Tammy Grimes took over the chore on Feb 1, 1982.

For the most part long-time radio personalities were heard with a smattering

of TV and movie actors doing their part. Almost all of the story lines were

newly written and produced, but there were some adaptions based on novels by

Edgar Allan Poe, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Charles Dickens, Victor Hugo, O.

Henry, Nathaniel Hawthorne to name a few. The end of the series came quite

quickly in early December 1982 with re-runs filling in the balance of the

year.
