On tonight’s episode of the Spooktacular, a meteorite lands in a farm field and when the farmer investigates the crash finds what’s landed is far more than simply a rock from space. And this object contains a surprise inside too.
Turn out the lights and give a listen to CBS Radio Mystery Theater – The Meteroite as it aired on Newsradio 78 WBBM Chicago on February 8th, 1977.

It is interesting to listen to a different radio heritage. Ours, in England, tended more towards the comedic. We had the genius of the Goons and Round the Horne. The latter was featuring sketches doing Polari, the lingua franca of a still banned gay community. This was stuff pushing the envelope. Perhaps because his career was abbreviated by alcoholism, I remember Tony Hancock, the very definition of a tragic genius. So perhaps we did have horror after all.
