The BBC World Service's reliable (though not reliably catalogued) 'Haunted: Stories of the Supernatural', ran for several years in the early 1980s and has since had a second life on Radio 4 Extra. Providing adaptations of tales old and new, it's an excellent supply of macabre tales...
MYSTERIOUS MAGPIE is a channel devoted to ghost and horror stories on British radio, and to dark tales of every kind. I have another channel, MYSTICAL MAGPIE, which is all about stories of fantasy, mythology, and adventure: / @mysticalmagpie-wo5fn

You can see his influence on Stephen King in this one.

I've always thought so - many is the Bradbury story that seems to echo in King, even if just in small ways...
