CBS Radio Mystery Theater (a.k.a. Radio Mystery Theater and Mystery Theater, sometimes abbreviated as CBSRMT) is a radio drama series created by Himan Brown that was broadcast on CBS Radio Network affiliates from 1974 to 1982, and later in the early 2000s was repeated by the NPR satellite feed.
The format was similar to that of classic old time radio shows like The Mysterious Traveler and The Whistler, in that the episodes were introduced by host E. G. Marshall who provided pithy wisdom and commentary throughout. Unlike the hosts of those earlier programs, Marshall is fully mortal, merely someone whose heightened insight and erudition plunge the listener into the world of the macabre (in a manner similar to that of "The Man in Black" on yet another old time radio program, Suspense).

Back in the day (before computers and social media) my dad would turn out the lights, smoke, and listen to mystery theatre. We shared a one room cabin and it was fun and scary listening to the programs all the while eyeing the glow from his cigarette. This brought back so many memories listening to this. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing this cool memory
We will never know how many tragic situations we have been saved from by being rejected.
This is true.
Amen 🙏
Doesn't have the same feeling, but then it's been a long time since 1972, falling asleep to a new event, every night! Love EG Marshall, the scary, creaky door!
My first thought was like Jake!!! I never heard of this but being a 24 year old with a old soul (no social media lol) and a lover of Rod Sterling twilight zone and a few other great ones along with audiobooks .....I had to listen!
💕💕💕💕💕 Love it ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! I will be binge listen as I write.
Keep these retro Radio 📻programs coming to me they will never go out of style 😎.
Loved listening to these growing up with my mom on WOR NYC…so many memories
Got my oil lamp! Just missing the can of Prince Albert and bottle of Johnny Walker...smell of macasser oil and bay rum. Not sure i belong in this timeline, lol!
Such fun!!! Thank you. Florence is sooo crazy wacko. Fantastic acting. Loving it!!!
Thanks!!
This episode was riveting! One of my very favourites thus far❤
This was a truly suspenseful and frightening episode!!! Thanks a ton for Sharing this, Chesterton Radio!
Admittedly, the story took a turn and twist that I totally wasn't expecting!
Sensational acting from the entire cast that created very vivid images of the action and emotions, while I was listening!!
I detest social media, don't watch new tv or movies, Netflix, nothing. I read books, and listen to radio dramas. Thank you for uploading!

@@ChestertonRadio Will do! Thanks again!
There is a total of 1339 of the CBS Radio Mystery Theater: I am currently on number 369
I loved listening to this show. Thank you.
Love the Mystery Theater! I used to listen to it every night when I was younger! Still love it!
CBSRMT is always good but this episode is exceptional. Really kept me on the edge of my seat. Keep 'em coming!
What a great episode! Thank you for posting!
This was made in the 1970s, as I understand but it sounds like it was made in the 1930s or 40s. Brilliant script. Had me thinking and guessing throughout. This would make an excellent movie.
Yes. It had me confused when Joe said that he had been in Vietnam.
You are correct and Linda is observant. CBS RMT had to recycle a lot of scripts from 1930’s and 1940’s radio, but they were updated with one or two lines to make them seem recent. The “I served in Vietnam” line is but one example. It was still a great show and I loved it as a young boy.
Excellent story! The actors were great! 👍🏼
I remember these as a kid, listening to my radio late at night. That intro music was always scary! Reminded me of the music on the TV series Dark Shadows....
Ditto. I was very disappointed when they took it off the air
Still scares me!
@@John-wc4xu Me too.
Oh just love these. I don't have a tv since everything on there is crap. So radio and audible it is.
Wonderfully chilling and exhilarating!
Irene, another great episode to listen to is called, the devil's boutique. A very spooky tale with a twist ending.
Excellent episode. Listened on May 19, 2021.
July 3rd 😂
@@Blonde_Somnambulist if you have the time, please listen to an episode called hickory dickory doom. It's the scariest episode I ever heard.

"What are you gonna do, murder me with an axe?" quote from man murdered by woman with an axe.
Huge Chesterton fan here. And fan of old school radio shows. This is wonderful!! Thank you!
The wife sounds like Betty Davis!
Who ever took the role of Florence did The Full Bette Davis at the end, top quality!
That woman who played florence, deserved an radio oscar for her superb performance. Shades of "hush, hush sweet charlotte".
Anne Seymour I believe.
The one thing that stops these CBS shows from being great to listen to while you try to go to sleep is that ***** creaking door at the start!!!
That squeaking sound was actually Himan Brown’s chair in his CBS office. There are a lot of fascinating stories about this show.
Sounds like someone is cheating on their wife…. 🤨
What a lovely couple. Ha.
Needs a darker screen.. I love Radio Mysteries.. I listened to them in Colorado Springs, CO.. I cannot remember the radio station.. But, I really enjoyed the programs..
Turn the brightness down on your screen!
@@ianlowden6168 I am now going to be immature... 😉 😝😝😝😝
@@noralee6787 🤣😂
Awesome shows. The shows are masterfully done and EG Marshall is great !
Great story! Thanks for loading it.
Awesome. Thank you.
great mystery theater.
Couldn't figure out if the characters were naive or plain stupid until the last sentence.
Naming their daughter after a homicidal maniac clinched the deal for me. No amount of naivety can explain _that_ .
The husband is just as loco as the wife
Amy was dim as a light bulb.
Why would she stay the night somewhere where two people clearly don't want her there and are being really unpleasant to her?! And why would Jack invite her to his house where his wife and Mother in law live? Why do they all do what Florence says? How did she get away with hacking her Father in law to death. Ridiculous 🙄
Entertainment is not necessarily logical.
@@catherinecookson225 True. I enjoyed it anyway. Just a bit silly. I generally prefer my entertainment to be believable within context.
She didn’t get away with it, she was put in an asylum for nine years, and she escaped that afternoon. You obviously missed a very important part. Hope this helps.
Thank you!!! I was reading thru the comments wondering when someone else would point this out! The whole set-up was ridiculous!
All those questions are answered in the story -- it moves pretty fast so you can't really be multi-tasking.
Why on earth would they name a child after Florence??
That was the scariest part of the whole story!
That is exactly what I was wondering!! She kills Jacks father and attempts to burn the rest of them to death and they name their child after her??? Don't you usually do that to honor someone? Other then that, this was a top notch thriller......!
Good one👏
Florence is Mrs. Tarbell from Pollyanna.
I adore radio adaptations / dramas , Pls if anyone has recommendations I b will hugely appreciative

A!a!a!aaaq
I have episode suggestions you should listen to. Sleepy village is a good story. I have a few more for you. Hickory, dickory, Doom and the real printer's devil are two spooky tales. Strange company is another good one. They are all from the radio mystery theater. Enjoy.
Just in time to wind down my day
I’m brand new and this is awesome. It’s the best channel I’ve listened to in a long time. 🖤💚🖤💚
Good one!
So two grown men can't overpower one mad woman ?
I was just thinking the same thing.
A mad woman with a gun. One or both have to be willing to die.
I guess in the early 70s is when men started to lose their masculinity🥰
Love it.
Love it
I loved for these in the 70s and live for them now!

Fire fire! She sounds like Beavis from Beavis and Butt-Head! LoL 😆
Amy definitely is telling the truth.
This is the best story that I ever heard.
thanks
❤❤❤❤ from England
please include airing dates🙂
E.g. Marshall is on creepshow. those bugs. and suspense. much more.
Why would they name their daughter Florence? Oh boy
What's wrong with Florence?One of my aunties was called Florence.
Why would they name their daughter after the woman who tried to kill them?
I agree. Florence is a nice name. However, what I meant (and as Harper's pointed out) this Florence tried to kill them all.
I have two episodes to recommend to you. Sagamore cottage is another good one. Escape,esa
@@junedaniels399 another good episode of radio mystery theater is escape, escape. A twist ending.
Great episode! Loved the suspense!
Another great episode to listen to is one called the devil's boutique. It will leave you in suspense.
Just don't ever show Little Florence where you keep the axe.
great
Oh yes she was !!!
Many thanks👍🏻🌼🌺✌️
Yikes!
Then named her daughter Florence? 🤔 🤷🏼♀️.
Good wishes to you x
Cast??? Amy sounds like Teresa Wright from Best years of our lives.
I would say ok I’m walking to the train station Florence and you can pick me up en route (not).
Florence is just too friendly. To me, that gave the game away that something was wrong here.
So many things went wrong!!
This is insane. Great first two acts. Off the rails third act.
Bad melodrama is very funny.
Live love
Ridiculous story.must have felt desperate to keep listening thinking it would improve
Wonderful!
I was saying the same thing. Sounds like betty Davis. Entailing. Good acting.
It's not bette Davis . The voice is far too deep!! Bette Davis spoke more eloquent!!
Ok. Thank you. I appreciate your response.
I found these particular character personalities rather irritating,..with the possible exception of Joe, who seemed the most genuine.
Could it have been? 🤭
😳
Riveting!!!
Not one of their best plays. Felt like the producers gave up the ghost.
@whovian girl
Really???? I thought it was quite good, even if its a bit improbable.
Not good.
What a load of rubbish.
Love it
Yikes!
Love it
