Eighty-eight years ago today, Orson Welles and the Mercury Theatre sent Martians across the airwaves in one of radio’s most famous broadcasts. On today’s Halloween Weekend edition of Daybreak, we revisit The War of the Worlds, explore why radio may be the perfect medium for a frightening story, and take a look at America’s 12-foot “Skelly” Halloween obsession.
Then we open the door to the Chesterton Radio Halloween collection—ghosts, mysteries, strange noises in the night, and plenty of stories best heard with the lights turned down.
Listen all weekend at Halloween.ChestertonRadio.com.
Today’s Daybreak is sponsored by the Chesterton Radio Mercantile at Shop.ChestertonRadio.com.
And whenever you want Chesterton Radio, The Open Door is streaming 24/7 at Live.ChestertonRadio.com.
