The Midnight Hour - Episode 8 - "The Raven", "The Yellow Wallpaper", "The Hitchhiker" radio drama and "The Masque of the Red Death" - 21st July 2023

Ahh, welcome, the clock has just struck midnight, and you are just in time for more tales to chill your very soul. Please, sit by the fire and make yourself comfortable.

Tonight's stories include "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe, in which the narrator is sent insane by a late night visitor in the form of a raven, "The Yellow Wallpaper" by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, in which a woman slowly loses her sanity locked in a room day in and day out, the dramatization of "The Hitchhiker" starring Orson Welles, in which Welles' character is haunted by a ghostly apparition while driving interstate, and Edgar Allan Poe's "The Masque of the Red Death", about a prince and his guests hiding in a fortress to evade a plague.

Our usual body bag of letters from our listeners, too.
