Set 1: the old radio show portion of the evening. (Listen to this set: Pop-up) |

| The Haunting Hour |
The Old Old Man
|
Originally broadcast sometime from 1944 - 1946 - probably 1945. | (no label) |
We don't know what year it was originally aired, the exact date of the show, or even who was in any of the episodes -- no records were ever kept.
This episode: 9 old men make a pact: whoever is last to stay alive gets all their money. Who's the last man standing? Tune in and find out. "Joe...he's not asleep...he's dead!!!" |
