Nice.
I love these audio stories, especially some of the older ones from the 1930's- 50's. I think that they are gravely under appreciated.

I have Sirius satellite radio and they have a station called Radio Classics. So, so cool. More than once I have been saved by Quiet Please, Inner Sanctum, Lights Out, etc when stuck in CA traffic.

You got it, man. These shows are nothing short of superb.

There are several websites available that stream many of these shows as well. And many of them are available for download on iTunes.
I strongly recommend them to anyone who enjoys "theater of the imagination" and good writing.

A more comtemporary show called CBS Radio Mystery Theater, hosted by the great E.G. Marshall, is available as well. This show was produced back in the 1970's- 80's and is second to none.
It is one of my favorites.

Here is one of the sites that streams...

I do have a double cassette of Christopher Lee reading Shelley's FRANKENSTEIN - which is awesome!
