Download The Weird Circle, Vol. 1: The Classic Radio Collection AudioBook Free
The Weird Group radio show was an anthology of basic thrillers from the pens of the world's best-known and respected fiction authors of the 19th century. The focus was on testimonies of horror, suspense, and the supernatural by such authors as Edgar Allan Poe, Robert Louis Stevenson, and Mary Shelley, with an intermittent drama by the likes of Emily Brontë, Charles Dickens, and George Eliot. For The Strange Circle, stated in New York by NBC and offered in syndication, the announcer sat in a cave beside a restless sea and instructed a bell keeper to "toll the bell so all may know that we are collected again in the strange group for another strange and strange story from out of the past". The casts included New York's steady pool of busy supporting actors, including Lawson Zerbe, Eleanor Audley, Jackson Beck, Mason Adams, Raymond Edward Johnson, and Arnold Moss. This assortment of 12 episodes from 1943 includes testimonies based on functions by Edgar Allan Poe, Wilkie Colllins, Honoré de Balzac, Dude de Maupassant, Prosper Mérimée, plus more: "The Fall of the home of Usher", "THE HOME and the mind", "The Vendetta", "The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym", "Declared Insane", "A Terribly Weird Bed", "What Was It?", "The Knightsbridge Mystery", "The Horla", "William Wilson", "A Interest in the Desert", and "Mateo Falcone".
