The house I grew up in was creepy too and had a bad vibe. I was scared all the time at night as a child. Lots of nightmares.

Delightful! Another good tale. Yep, heard this years ago. .I can't read like once because of old eyes. These audios are 2nd to reading myself. Thanks for sharing.

The artwork for this episode is terrifying! The story was spooky! Thank you

[@canman5060]

This is the best artwork creation for this episode.

[@ZekeThePlumber86]

The thumbnails are simply incredible! Looks just like Monnster House!

[@nicolegreen3292]

Thank you so much for these fantastic radio plays! I live in the UK so I never got a chance to hear them back in the 70s 😊

MONSTER HOUSE!!!!!!

Spooky .. it's a good one.

[@UncleEarl97]

What a creepy story, parts of it we could anticipate, but love some twists to keep us guessing. Enjoyed on 5/17/2022.

Hey mystery lovers! I need help. I'm racking my brain to find a mystery radio (I don't know if Suspense, or other series) episode where the plot is a girl needs a transplant, so the father makes a deal that requires him to hit a boy with his car and take him to the hospital and harvest the boy's organs to save his daughter. Then, months later the father comes home to find his daughter gone. There was a note, stating something like "you're a parent, you understand". He also had a vision, or drove to a place where there were children with missing limbs lurching around, lost. It was so freaky, but I'd love to find it! Thanks everyone!! :)

[@UncleEarl97]

Sounds like a great spooky radio show and would be even scarier if it was done on film like a Steven King story. Let us know if you find it!

[@miriammcconnell6465]

@@UncleEarl97 thanks so much!!! Someone actually did find it for me. I was amazed! It's called "the exchange" ugh so freaky

Thank goodness he had a friend with a brain, and his wife was sad about a house but not his or her safety.

[@patrickoneill8707]

He sounds 55 at least and she sounds 45 at least and they're talking about the children they're going to have! LOL

[@justincovert6943]

That's because they both probably smoked 2 packs a day.

[@kushfairyny1]

I know these shows are always like that...I've hears some where the woman sounds at least 50 something and talking about wanting to have a baby..and has one too

[@binyon7]

Man I got to tell you ... if Old Binyon was married to that woman there would be fresh with cement in the basement.
Come to think of it...

Your cat looks like my cat when she was a kitten FBS . Thanks for the show CS.

[@blaqkdymondinc]

I hate that house , I'd rather go to prison 😂 Yikes! Binge listening during pandemic😷Sep 11 2020. Red Skies like a Sci-Fi here in the Oakland Bay Area. Now that's another mystery!😱

[@shicruisin7004]

What's with the background talking towards the end......?

[@brunoantony3218]

Audio rectification. The equipment probably started receiving interference from GRS transmitters from amateur radio transmissions or from other radio services with a transmitter located nearby. This kind of interference, known as audio rectification, is usually caused by the receiver. With this phenomenon, an electronic circuit, usually an amplifier, is suddenly affected by strong unwanted outside radio signals. If the equipment is surrounded by an intense radio signal, the circuit wiring or the system components may act as antennas and pick up an unwanted signal. This is not necessarily due to a technical fault in the transmitter. The entry point of the unwanted signal must be located, which can be done by disconnecting all accessories to isolate the culprit. It's also recommended that the neighborhood be checked for transmitter antennas in order to identify the potential source of the interference so a solution can be found. Filters, shielding or grounding may be required.

[@fleabiskit5649]

Thanks for the explanation Bruno! A lot of people who listen to these don’t realize they were recorded off of AM radios with crappy little tape recorders by die hard fans

[@PqV72MT4]
