This takes me back to Sunday nights as a kid. This played on CHUM FM (Toronto station) and my Dad would put it on the stereo in his room to fall asleep to. My parents' house is an old church from the 1850s, so the creepy voices and sounds from the stories were carried by the hollowness of the cathedral ceiling throughout the house, among the sounds of competing snoring by Mom and Dad. Ah, childhood.
Hard to believe that after all the entertaining modern technology we have today, that many of these radio programs are actually more interesting then TV. I wish the radio stations still created mystery and drama programs.
I graduated in 75. I listened to rock, mostly. I never knew these mystery story's existed until I found them here on Y. T. I've been loving them for about 5 years. Every night I listen. I don't even have cable or satellite anymore. You Tube or free channels. Thank God for internet👍🤗
When I was maybe 8 years old, I used to listen to this every week on my little am radio. Came on way past my bedtime. I’d have to sneak and hold the radio tight to one ear.
When we lived in Kissimmee , Florida, I would go out to the our car, late at night, turn on CBS Mystery Theater, put my knees on the dashboard, and listen to this wonderful show!
@@jordin7091 Am reception would be better outside and at that time the best AM radio receivers were in cars. I used to sit in my window or on the porch roof (outside my window) at night.
Chill, dark nights...the time for ghost stories and fantasy! Perhaps two radio play ghost stories I’ve produced AND a brand new mystery listed on my channel “Claude Chabot Presents” right here on YT AND a radio fantasy comedy, “A Trip to the Moon” starring Joyce Randolph of The Honeymooners, which features Larry Robinson, who, as a child actor, actually worked with Orson Welles.

I just found your channel and subbed & liked. Thank God for people like you who upload precious gems like these. I'm a HUGE fan of old time radio. Especially the mysteries. A thousand thank you's.
Love these old stories! Lots of memories from listening to these with my dad and mom when we'd go to the lake. A few times it was stormy, and that added to the atmosphere.
This program was always a welcome refuge from all the difficulty I endured in my youth. I have always loved mysteries and love writing. The radio mysteries are an inspiration and a pleasure to find again after all these years.
These are great. I remember them from high school days. if you'd like to hear something like this, try Claude Chabot's Theatre of the Fantastic on YT. One of them is at ua-cam.com/video/tjMKxhE-elw/v-deo.html.
I would listen to CBS Mystery theater on Armed Forces Network (AFN) when I was posted Over seas in 1976 it would come on at midnight to one.I was just a teenager and worked K-9 and I would get spooked while listning to the story. I am so glad its on you tube.
H Baxter I've heard of The Zero Hour, someone else just suggested a show called The Black Mass which I had not heard of before. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Black_Mass
H Baxter I started listening CBS Radio Mystery Theater in the fall of 1975, when I was in the Marine Corps stationed at Camp LeJeune NC. Great memories when I was only 20 yrs old. Semper Fi.
You should do it again and spend time together on a you tube channel that you created together. Just like the good old days. Seems like we all have ideas like this and we mean to do the things on our lists but time passes and we never do and then regret it later when it appears to be to late
Same! So did my brother and I! He used to get sound effect records from the public library and he so cleverly incorporated the effects with the story. Amazing times!

Thank you so much for putting this on I used to listen to this with my mother when I was a wee little tiny thing brings back good memories she's gone she's been gone for a long time thank you
Awesome, The only thing missing is the radio commercials from the 1970's I remember as a kid. Watergate updates in the news, food adds and prices of what thing's were on sale for that week in the grocery store. Crazy, like a different life now.
You are absolutely right, three loaves of bread at ShopRIte for $1. Amazing how inflation has raised the same so high. It’s like watching the TV shows from the 70’s and seeing gas for $0.29 a gallon.
i want to personally thank you for making these splendid shows available its a joy to listen to these again i listen to them on the radio many moons ago laying in my room when i was 15yrs old i would anxious await each week for the nxt new episode thank you so much
Thank You for posting! WOW memories! I couldn't remember the name of the show but AS SOON as I heard the creaky door I remembered!😲😁 I remember when mom sent me to bed (and I was a night owl even as a child) I would switch to AM station a listen to around 10pm.😁
Thank you chilly sunshine For uploading these old radio mystery theatre episodes From the 1970s It takes me back to a time i miss In my life as a kid Chilly Sunshine you are the main reason i did not close my account With you tube
I used to listen to Mystery when I was too young to go out on Saturday nights 13, 14yrs , it was 1970. Fond memories; summer nights when I couldn’t sleep, cozy Fall and winter nights with my plug in radio on my nightstand. The funniest thing …when I was older and at a work convention on Cape Cod, there was EG Marshal at the same hotel.❤I told him how I loved mystery theatre. We chatted for a few minutes. Nice man.

Isn't it great to listen to a story and engage your imagination? Much better for the mind than TV. Listen to audio dramas at night before I fall asleep. Sometimes fall asleep listening to them. BBC channel has some good audio dramas too.
Radio shows like Twilight Zone and others are such an amazing form of entertainment that most people are oblivious to. It's really tragic that works of art such as this go largely unnoticed by younger generations. Even some from my generation aren't aware these masterpieces even exist. If you've never listened to something like this, give it a shot. If you like to read and don't have time, this is a great substitute. These are perfect for going to sleep to, or listening to on long road trips, especially at night. It's amazing how your mind starts to form a movie in your mind. Love it!
I remember a time when we were traveling from California to Missouri by car. Late night. Can’t sleep anymore. Turning the dial while passing through the boonies. Stumbled across Mystery Theatre and I was so excited and soon enthralled! Thank you 😊
Hmm, I don't like the creaking door. I have no player on which it doesn't sound like fingernails on a chalkboard times 100. I try to skip it, it's so desperately annoying, deafening, and nothing like a door creaking. Why is it just me and whatever computer or CD player I listen to it on? I've never seen one complaint.
My dad just explain to me he is to watch something called inner sanctum or listen on the radio any shared the doors of the scare the shit out of them I wonder if this is the door
I love this kind of old castle kind of pictures or videos and ambience and everything those are gold yester years artists and creative thinkers were all great👌🏻
@@emilythompson3605 you are 100% correct. The old saying, "Once a Marine always a Marine." is so true. At 66 yrs old, I'm not as fast and not as lean but I'm still as mean a United States Marine. I served from 1973 to 1977. When did your husband serve? Thank him for his service and also to you for supporting him. Semper Fi and long live the Legend of Chesty Puller, Semper Fi
Francis Sternhagen! She reads Steven Kings "Dolores Claiborne" audio book. It is one of the best readings I've ever listened to. She does the Maine accent perfectly, That book is captivating, so much better & more involved than the movie.
your channel, these stories, the classic radio style, and the nostalgia helped me get through my detox from oxy addiction.. i couldn't sleep for 11 nights and me and my dad would listen to these in the living room all night. 23 days clean now and still look forward to listening to these each night while i fall asleep.. thanks for sharing
+ChillySunshine thanks. yes, it is a major problem nowadays and the trap is easy to fall into. i hope you and all you love never experience it. thanks for the kind words
Slomofogo Perhaps you're the judgmental type that requires someone's full detailed life story. First, you know nothing if you've never experienced addiction so fuck off. I broke my back and had it fused together when I was 20 and lost everything I had as far as sports go. When the degeneration got worse enough, they eventually had to do a percutaneous discectomy and now I have no padding in between two other disks instead of just a fused disk. So, real man who delights in their attempt to belittle someone they don't know, when you're my age, 25, and can't fucking walk without a goddamned cane and you can't have sex because your right leg goes numb whenever you try to move in an awkward position and have to always lay on your back, when you can't drive because the position of sitting once again makes your leg go numb, when someone at that age is going through that kind of shit and they are prescribed to powerful medications, shit can happen. I'm glad a "real man" like you had the will power and sheer determination stop taking Percocet after they almost killed you... which would have meant you either have an allergy to it or you took the whole bottle because Percocet is not strong enough for a correctly prescribed dosage to almost kill you. Thanks for your attempt at being positive but if this is just the kind of person you are, then you shouldn't offer anybody any sort of words of advice or encouragement because you're shit at it.
Dion St. Michael Hey! Thanks! Ya, it was a brutal several days but it all seems like a distant nightmare now.. It took about a month to readjust, but there were really only about 4 or 5 days where it was so terrible that it's almost hard to describe.. It's definitely worth going through tho

If I can look for more people like that around my neighborhood I'd be all set. Everyone has to have that other crap. So I guess I'm listening to radio alone I'm not alone I'm with you guys
Thank you for this. I just stumbled across and I subscribed. I love to listen to stuff like this before bed. I get horrible migraines/clusters that affect my eyes and I can't view a tv or screen of any kind for days. This is a great way to take my mind away from everything.
Consider the title of this radio play.....THE RECLUSE. Some listeners may think it's referring 2 the deceased grandmother.....but, instead my opinion, it's the deceased father that was found in that room 6 years after he went missing. I mean, that's abt as much of a recluse as you can get to be.
In the mid 70s, while living in the mountainous parts of Southwestern Virginia, I went out to the car in the evenings to tune in CBS Radio Mystery Theatre. The car's am radio was the only way to get reception. Late at night you could receive stations in New York, Chicago or Fort Wayne. Pleasant memories...
This is so great. I never knew this was on the radio in the 70's. When I was a little kid in the early 50's, all we had was radio and all of those wonderful spooky shows. We got the tv in 1956 when I was 9. For sure I will be listening to more of these. Nothing on tv anymore.

These shows bring back memories of late night 1970s. Something scary about these old programs which still stands up today. I think these shows make you have to use your imagination. For example is EG Marshall opening his coffin when you hear that creaking or opening a old door walking into a dark room lit by candlelight?
I remember being at a slumber party in the late 60’s.. one night we watched “I saw what you did and I know who you are.” Pulling the sleeping bag over your face!!! Joan Crawford was in it.
@@grannyearth5496 , It took me awhile, but I found the name of the film that scared me to death as a child. The film was "Strait Jacket" a black and white film made in 1964. Though I saw the television broadcast approximately 1969/70. Had nightmares for a year. Lol!
I'm going to go through the same thing in just a couple days. I know how it feels I've had to do it before. God bless you brother at least you had your dad there. I'm going to do this all alone
These type radio serials helped me learn about western people when we immigrated to america in 1952 , nobody we knew had a TV until the 70's , we listened every evening until the program went off the air in Detroit in the late 80' early 90's , by the late 90's all radio serials were off air , for sci fi fans " X Minus One " is a great pretty star trek space program that's pretty cool .

Wish modern radio did stuff like this. Thanks
We do
radio plays every Wednesday night on 94.5FM WRWO
My brother, sisters, and myself used to listen to these every week back in the 70s.
I remember my Dad playing these in the car when I was young , they used to creep me out. Great memories
I remember camping out and listening to this on a small radio
remember lying in bed as a young kid and listening( past my bedtime,so I had to put the radio under the covers)
This takes me back to Sunday nights as a kid. This played on CHUM FM (Toronto station) and my Dad would put it on the stereo in his room to fall asleep to. My parents' house is an old church from the 1850s, so the creepy voices and sounds from the stories were carried by the hollowness of the cathedral ceiling throughout the house, among the sounds of competing snoring by Mom and Dad. Ah, childhood.
Add rain to that Perfect ❤
listened to this, as well, on Sundays. CHUM-FM. Comedy bowl then this and others. Fell asleep to it. Good memories.
Hey everyone! Tysm for this posing. I enjoyed it.

Hard to believe that after all the entertaining modern technology we have today, that many of these radio programs are actually more interesting then TV. I wish the radio stations still created mystery and drama programs.
+Barbara G Absolutely!
Then again, easier to believe when considering that "modern technology" is a failed substitute for the human soul and spirit.
Mona Irwin love these old shows!
Barbara G me too. it's a lot more entertaining than TV.
They still do in some countries, because they have that here. I miss how they talked back then tho.
My favorite radio show of all time! All 1,399 episodes! I grew up listening to these in the '70s and love them even more today

Ohhhh how I love these old stories..thank you for posting them!!
Soon as that door starts creaking, my eyes get all heavy..
Just discovered this- what a treasure trove during this quarantine. I don't know how I missed it in the 70's. Thanks, so very much.

To this on my little
Transistor radio late at night
Back in the 1970s
Why didnt you listen in the house???

@@jalaneperry7643, for me it was the clock radio beside the bed.
I love hearing the old adverts included
My dad would play this for me when I was like 6 and 7 years old to go to sleep. Morbid, but I'm totally happy that he did!

I’ve always loved radio mysteries!
As a kid we would listen to CBS radio theatre on road trips when my workaholic father made himself available. Cherished memories to say the least.
Listening on a snowy and rainy Saturday afternoon. The best way to listen to these shows.
A blast from the past loved the music that went with these.
My best friend and I used to listen to this when we were kids in the early '70's. Scared the heck outta us!
These are great. I remember them from high school days. if you'd like to hear something like this, try Claude Chabot's Theatre of the Fantastic on YT. One of them is at ua-cam.com/video/tjMKxhE-elw/v-deo.html.
We play this loudly on Halloween night for trick or treaters!!

@@Carly8Corday I hate it too and skip it soon as it starts, doesnt sound like a creaky door at all and its LOUD. arg!
My dad just explain to me he is to watch something called inner sanctum or listen on the radio any shared the doors of the scare the shit out of them I wonder if this is the door
I like it haha
It still terrifies my dog
I love this kind of old castle kind of pictures or videos and ambience and everything those are gold yester years artists and creative thinkers were all great👌🏻
hit these every night have been since i found them last year, brilliant
This is like the podcast of today! Thank you for posting.
Boy does this bring back memories..
Allen Keller Good ones I hope.
***** Very good memories when I was younger and we didn't have TV only radio and we had to use our imagination.
+ChillySunshine LOL
"Imagination"?
Where can i download an app for that? ;)
imagination theater find at harrynile.com
I was so excited to find these online, brings back a lot of childhood memories falling asleep listening to Mystery Theater stories
Absolutely loved it. Perfect length because I was able to listen to it on my way to work this Morning 😁💙
Great memories back in 1977, when I was in the United States Marine Corps stationed at Camp LeJeune North Carolina.
Semper Fi Marine. My husband is 20+ year in the Corp. No other branch of service can match the USMC! Thank you for your service.
@@emilythompson3605 you are 100% correct. The old saying, "Once a Marine always a Marine." is so true. At 66 yrs old, I'm not as fast and not as lean but I'm still as mean a United States Marine. I served from 1973 to 1977. When did your husband serve? Thank him for his service and also to you for supporting him. Semper Fi and long live the Legend of Chesty Puller, Semper Fi
Just drove 18hr these were great thank you.
Francis Sternhagen! She reads Steven Kings "Dolores Claiborne" audio book.
It is one of the best readings I've ever listened to. She does the Maine accent perfectly, That book is captivating, so much better & more involved than the movie.
Law & Order and Sex and the City vet also 😉
Enjoyed her as Cliff Claven's Mom on Cheers a few times, and as the sheriff's wife in the film Misery ("There's that spice...").
your channel, these stories, the classic radio style, and the nostalgia helped me get through my detox from oxy addiction.. i couldn't sleep for 11 nights and me and my dad would listen to these in the living room all night. 23 days clean now and still look forward to listening to these each night while i fall asleep.. thanks for sharing
+Borgia Nation ~ I know many have died from Oxy Addiction so that's great to hear...............Hope all is going well.
+ChillySunshine thanks. yes, it is a major problem nowadays and the trap is easy to fall into. i hope you and all you love never experience it. thanks for the kind words
Slomofogo Perhaps you're the judgmental type that requires someone's full detailed life story. First, you know nothing if you've never experienced addiction so fuck off. I broke my back and had it fused together when I was 20 and lost everything I had as far as sports go. When the degeneration got worse enough, they eventually had to do a percutaneous discectomy and now I have no padding in between two other disks instead of just a fused disk. So, real man who delights in their attempt to belittle someone they don't know, when you're my age, 25, and can't fucking walk without a goddamned cane and you can't have sex because your right leg goes numb whenever you try to move in an awkward position and have to always lay on your back, when you can't drive because the position of sitting once again makes your leg go numb, when someone at that age is going through that kind of shit and they are prescribed to powerful medications, shit can happen. I'm glad a "real man" like you had the will power and sheer determination stop taking Percocet after they almost killed you... which would have meant you either have an allergy to it or you took the whole bottle because Percocet is not strong enough for a correctly prescribed dosage to almost kill you. Thanks for your attempt at being positive but if this is just the kind of person you are, then you shouldn't offer anybody any sort of words of advice or encouragement because you're shit at it.
+Borgia Nation ignore that comment. hope your not in pain and your doing ok. I love these uploads too, thanks for sharing✌
Dion St. Michael Hey! Thanks! Ya, it was a brutal several days but it all seems like a distant nightmare now.. It took about a month to readjust, but there were really only about 4 or 5 days where it was so terrible that it's almost hard to describe.. It's definitely worth going through tho
Oh my gosh...this is what I've been looking for....I love ending my night to listen to these mystery stories...new subscriber.!!!👻👻👻
Chill, dark nights...the time for ghost stories and fantasy! Perhaps two radio play ghost stories I’ve produced AND a brand new mystery listed on my channel “Claude Chabot Presents” right here on YT AND a radio fantasy comedy, “A Trip to the Moon” starring Joyce Randolph of The Honeymooners, which features Larry Robinson, who, as a child actor, actually worked with Orson Welles. Here’s the link: ua-cam.com/video/Hex2ltykNTM/v-deo.html--Claud. If you don’t want to click the link just search “Claude Chabot presents” on UA-cam.
I really appreciate the descriptions, you must have put lots of work into these, thank you!
So good! I'm addicted to these now. Thank you ❤
I can remember listening to these in the 70s. Why did they ever take this stuff off the radio

If I can look for more people like that around my neighborhood I'd be all set. Everyone has to have that other crap. So I guess I'm listening to radio alone I'm not alone I'm with you guys
And we're with you!
Yup!
I love these old time radio shows much better then what's on tv now days thanks so much for the upload really enjoyed listening.
Thank you for this. I just stumbled across and I subscribed. I love to listen to stuff like this before bed. I get horrible migraines/clusters that affect my eyes and I can't view a tv or screen of any kind for days. This is a great way to take my mind away from everything.
Grew up listening late at night to these programs. The music drew me in every time and the next hour disappeared as I sat transfixed.
Consider the title of this radio play.....THE RECLUSE. Some listeners may think it's referring 2 the deceased grandmother.....but, instead my opinion, it's the deceased father that was found in that room 6 years after he went missing. I mean, that's abt as much of a recluse as you can get to be.
From the first conversation with the wife "Tom" was the emotional recluse.😮
In the mid 70s, while living in the mountainous parts of Southwestern Virginia, I went out to the car in the evenings to tune in CBS Radio Mystery Theatre. The car's am radio was the only way to get reception. Late at night you could receive stations in New York, Chicago or Fort Wayne. Pleasant memories...
Great video ChillySunshine and all the other ones....Great job!!
I used to listen to this as a teenager great.
I tell you what used to piss me off. when you had only AM radio back then. and it was hard to tune the station with these stories.
That Continuous BUZZ
And Static.
Lol
Yep. As soon as the sun went down local am radio stations started to fade out .It was frustrating
I love these shows
I cant sleep at night so I decided to revisit an old show w. I still cant sleep
These seem enjoyable. I'm glad these are posted!😊
Best bedtime stories.
Its my bedtime story.
I love it! I used to lie in bed in the dark listening to this!
these programs are the shit. plain simple entertaining
This is so great. I never knew this was on the radio in the 70's. When I was a little kid in the early 50's, all we had was radio and all of those wonderful spooky shows. We got the tv in 1956 when I was 9. For sure I will be listening to more of these. Nothing on tv anymore.
Daniel Richerson: I know your comment IS five years old, so the chances of your reading THIS are rather scarce, but I was really moved to say this by what you wrote: You are to be congratulated, sir, for overcoming the addiction you spoke of, just you, your dad and these CBS mystery stories. I know that's a really tough thing to do, and you were smart to stay AWAY from so-called "rehabilitation" centers which make use of ignorant, punitive and SELF-SERVING practices, with their aim being to PROLONG their "patient's" stay, soaking insurance for the most they can get, and of course, not to do their job well so they can see you again, real soon.
But HURRAY for you and your dad...you gave those frauds "THE FINGER" and got yourself WELL! If I should ever find myself in a similar situation (which is unlikely since, in my crappy little New York town, almost all doctors and pharmacists here are behaving as though this is West Virginia - no offense to West Virginians but I think your state has been RUINED by your awful politicians like the so-called Democrat Joe Mattis, who votes AGAINST giving financial assistance to those who need it and votes against FAIR PAY - $15./hr. - so you can barely take care of yourself and your family and so you are vulnerable to assh*les selling opiates and opioids.)
But YOU beat it! oh, yeah, and as you said, CBS Mysteries with the intelligent and creepy E.G. Marshall, provided you with an interesting, and nostalgic, diversion. (Three cheers for diversions, distractions and not-too-realistic creepy situations!!!)
Good night, friend, and best wishes and good health to you and all your loved ones. You are a strong person. kris k.
p.s.: to everyone tuned in right now, I've had both vaccines (Pfizer) and I had NO PROBLEMS with either one. just wanted to let you all know; I really think you can trust this process...it'll be good for you and everyone around you. [sorry, I went off on too many tangents.] good night©
I hate the busybody wife that believes she has the right to know everything. However, I guess without this busybody there would be no story.
It’s a pretty tired stereotype but it helps move the plot along.
My grandma used to turn this on at night, I'd listen to it lying in bed! Wow... whaaaaaaaaaat memories

These shows bring back memories of late night 1970s. Something scary about these old programs which still stands up today. I think these shows make you have to use your imagination. For example is EG Marshall opening his coffin when you hear that creaking or opening a old door walking into a dark room lit by candlelight?
I remember being at a slumber party in the late 60’s.. one night we watched “I saw what you did and I know who you are.” Pulling the sleeping bag over your face!!! Joan Crawford was in it.
@@grannyearth5496: I think I saw that same broadcast when I was a child. I had nightmares for a year. Old Joan was a creepy gal. Lol!
@@grannyearth5496 , no, the one I'm thinking about is where Joan is a axe murderer. Not sure of the name. It was in black and white is all I remember.
Deb Butcher “Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte!”
@@grannyearth5496 , It took me awhile, but I found the name of the film that scared me to death as a child. The film was "Strait Jacket" a black and white film made in 1964. Though I saw the television broadcast approximately 1969/70. Had nightmares for a year. Lol!
All I can say is.......I’ll take that 77 Buick Regal.:)
77 Buick Regal great car.
Brings back great memories!!
I'm going to go through the same thing in just a couple days. I know how it feels I've had to do it before. God bless you brother at least you had your dad there. I'm going to do this all alone
Been there. Peace.
I have always loved RMT. Thank you!
You're welcome.
thank you for sharing!
You're welcome.
These type radio serials helped me learn about western people when we immigrated to america in 1952 , nobody we knew had a TV until the 70's , we listened every evening until the program went off the air in Detroit in the late 80' early 90's , by the late 90's all radio serials were off air , for sci fi fans " X Minus One " is a great pretty star trek space program that's pretty cool .
thank you
I use to hear this back in late 70s when i was a teen.
Great story..twists and turns.Thanks Chilly☺
