My husband and I remember this from our childhood. We are listening to this during quarantine.
I listen to these to help me relax and fall asleep. Thank you.
I _loved_ this show and used to listen to it every Monday thru Friday when I was a teenager. If I wasn't watching some wonderful black and white movie on tv, I was listening to the "CBS Radio Mystery Theater".
Be well and stay safe everybody.
Thanks for sharing this. I used to listen Mystery Theater, hosted by E.G. Marshall on the radio every evening in the 70s.
Wow, and I got grounded so many times! The radio was supposed to be off by nine on a school night. Well, I couldn't miss Mystery Theater! So, being a teenager that was always smarter than my parents, I hid my radio under my pillow so I could hear the show, but my parents didn't know. Well, I'd fall asleep with the radio on and in the morning, BUSTED!!! Great old days....
Oh my gosh. I did exactly the same thing
@@ScottDavis-nj8yw Co-sign!
me as well!
😂❤️love it ! This was always on up in my mom’s kitchen and downstairs in my grand mom’s ,grounded a lot too then ,but those sure were the days
As a child my 4 sisters and I would listen on our way home from visiting our aunt and uncle in culver city. We had the 3 seat station wagon, being youngest I got the far back. I loved listening to this in the dark heading south on I-5 seeing the power poles w the green and red lights on top.
It was probably one of the rare times my family of 7 would allllll listen and not be talking. This show and Charlie's Angels...sh!!!
So ty, good times.
I remember listening to these at bedtime when I was a kid falling asleep with my mom. She loved these and still does, these bring back such warm memories. Thank you so much
You're welcome Heather.
We will never outgrow these! Thank you for putting them up! Your the best!
I lessen to them every night.
Omg so good thanks to all
I also listened to these stores with my mom in bed at night I was about 4 years old at the time.
I am so happy for this channel, thank you for uploading awesome stories 👍👍👏👏😊😊
Grew up listing to these. You would imagine the characters, the places ..... your imagination was endless! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I discovered CBS RMT when I was eight and I absolutely loved it it was my own secret but my parents gave me hell every day in the summer because I got scared and stayed up too late and I was sleepy the next day but if I had to do it over I wouldn’t change a single thing I listen to mom I still get in trouble and I love it anyway I feel like I’m more in Riched person because of those hours I spent snuggled up with my radio thank you so much for making these available to people once again
Thank you so much for these wonderful old programs Chilly!
You're welcome Amy.

Great upload! This program was broadcast on WNAX radio (Yankton, SD) while I was a high school and college student in the upper mid-west. Great to listen to on a dark rainy evening!
Get the hot chocolate ready, I will be right over. :)

This is what's missing nowadays. Many sleepovers this was our soundtrack.
I wonder why they don't play these on the radio anymore I used to enjoy hearing the while laying in bed at night.
People don't use thier imagination any more. You can't get most of the younger generation to look at a black and white movie.
Everyone in my family and friends thinks I'm crazy for listening to these every night. "Read your Kindle" No, at night I want to close my eyes and relax. When I fall asleep, I know exactly where I left off. A book is too long.
Me toooooo!
@@hillerybrown5918 absolutely 100% true...that's the thing I enjoyed the most about these, picturing the settings, the people...that's sorely lost nowadays with video games and social media..
They do still play them in Balto. Md. All reruns.
I never heard of radio theater until several weeks ago. I'm playwright. I recently entered the BBC Radio Contest. This is awesome!!!!!!

It's good to know that radio shows are still going strong in the UK.
I have heard the BBC radio adaptation of Who Goes There? (The story on which The Thing was based) and it's still better than the one that was done by Blue Hours Productions here in the US. Incidentally, some of the lines in the US adaptation we're taken directly from the original story.
The BBC adaptation surely got me thinking with lines like "Natural protective reaction: don't know what it is, fear it.... destroy it." and "We're scientists. We can conceive of anything. It's our job to dream Doc, and make those dreams concrete."
What certainly got me was the mention of 'suspended animation', which I can't recall hearing in any other adaptation of the story.
I just listen to return to shadow lake story was awesome thanks
This one is really good.

Love listening to your shows at bedtime
I would keep my radio turned down listening to these during school 🌙 nights. I grew up with these classics.
Great actor E.G Marshall
Thanks
Cold winter nights...time to pull the bedclothes over you with ghost stories and fantasy! Perhaps two radio play ghost stories I’ve produced AND a brand new mystery listed on my channel “Claude Chabot Presents” right here on YT AND a radio fantasy comedy, “A Trip to the Moon” starring Joyce Randolph of The Honeymooners, which features Larry Robinson, who, as a child actor, actually worked with Orson Welles. Here’s the link: ruclips.net/video/Hex2ltykNTM/видео.html--Claud. If you don’t want to click the link just search “Claude Chabot presents” on RUclips.
For all those wondering, on the CBSRMT website, the last remark is longer, but still truncated. The version there continues.. "After all, no one among us can be permitted to play God. And yes, it would be a much better world .." but at that point it again cuts out.
Enjoyable ☺...along with great artwork. Thank you very much! 👂🎴

They need more of these on the radio instead of the same radio stations playing the same 5-10 songs all day.
I liste8to these when I was a child in the 70s. Good memories.
Listened to these on family road trips, like to Clear Lake🌹. Now Binge listening during pandemic July 2020 Oakland CA

The murderer in this made minuscule of the victims. Total stranger was hated and also hidden behind.
thanks for these if you can find some of the programs from the 30s that would be great
Five years give lives, mercy of oblivion
Anyone remember an episode about a tiger and mirror? That is all I remember about it. Thanks
I think she has been dead also! Inside!!!!!! So sad!
Ah ha, I knew it . I knew killer had to be..............
Hi from England ❤❤❤❤❤
Eg in the house
Love this channel..I have no idea where else to post this question: Does anybody know which CBSRMT it was where a picture was gifted to a museum of sorts..( this took place in Vermont/ New Hampshire area) but the person in the picture moved towards the house ..? I am trying to compose my own personal list of best of CBSRMT..
Wasn't that a night gallery episode
Nah, it was a CBSRMT episode where some woman gives all her stuff to a Collafe, and seems that every night, something changes in the picture. Slowly there is a figure moving towards the picture, creeping slowly to the house in the picture.
I can think of a lot of people I'd like to help also.
😂
Was it Aunt Millie thinking she ended their loneliness?x
Lol, it reminds what life was like as a child during the 60's and how no one thought to locked their doors back in those days, and you felt like a creepy neurotic paranoid if you did. It wasn't until the late 60's as the newly created drug culture started to take off that crazy shit by violent and psychopathic people started to take off as well. By the end of the 70's you felt you were irresponsibly endangering your life all those in the home with you by not locking the doors at night. By the end of the 80's the doors were typically locked at ALL times!
And now almost no one has ever experienced, nor could ever imagine life with out keeping the doors locked; and I firmly believe it can be squarely blamed on the creation of the drug culture as promoted by cultural Marxism.
There are still people who never lock their doors .. few and far between but still among us. Health Harmony Peace and Love to ALL!
@@revanamarie7210 I'm sure there are. Happy thoughts can protect one from all sadistic criminals and eliminate the need for common sense.
Mr. Diaz allowed to stay.
Sam Dann was such a bad writer
👍👍

did the Aunt do it
Cherrie Shird, she's the only one that didn't lock the door.
She told Diaz "I want to help her" I'm guessing helping her is putting her out of her misery.
I st
can't stand that Latin American or 18th century European accent that is used far too often in this series.
Vut r zhu toking avout?
