Prick up your ears and listen to The Thing on the Fourble Board', a chilling old-time radio play that will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish! This 1940 episode from the Quiet Please horror radio series, masterfully blends the suspense of an oil rig in the fields of California with a terrifying mystery that grows with each passing moment.

A couple of oil drillers working the night shift have their routine shattered when something sinister is discovered—something on the fourble board. As the crew begins to realize that they are not alone, a sense of unease builds to a fever pitch. What exactly is lurking in the shadows of the platform? 

In this show you will hear the growing panic in the voices of the men as they confront a fear they can’t explain. The Thing on the Fourble Board will leave you breathless and questioning what could be out there, just beyond the edge of the light.
