About this episode
Unknown Broadcast returns with classic old-time radio horror stories — radio suspense steeped in paranoia, poison, prison clocks, and a blade that never stops its kiss. Settle in, my dear: this ghost stories podcast slips between classic OTR chambers— Mystery Theater , Escape , The Whistler , and more—where alibis are stitched on ocean liners, serpents nest under sheets, and justice keeps perfect time. Tonight’s anthology is candlelit, close-mouthed, and very patient. Breathe quietly. 🚢 Sea of Troubles — A clever man trades places on the S.S. Empress and thinks he’s outsailed consequence; the wake behind him says otherwise. 🐍 Poison — In a dark room, a whisper: don’t move. Something cold is coiled beneath the sheet, and the clock refuses to help. 🗝️ Escape by Death — A sealed ledger opens; debts are tallied in hush and ash, and only one exit is properly marked. 🕵️ You Can’t Trust a Stranger — A pleasant voice, a harmless favor, a turn of the key… and suddenly every shadow knows your name. ⏳ The Last Day of a Condemned Man — Footsteps count backwards; the final morning tastes of iron and prayer. 🕳️ The Pit and the Pendulum — Stone, rats, and a blade that sings closer with each breath you dare. Stay very still, my dear—some doors unlock when you breathe too loudly, and some blades do not miss twice. 🎧 LISTEN NOW and subscribe for spine-tingling horror stories every week! 🎉 Unlock exclusive bonus episodes and support the show on Patreon! 👉 WeeklySpooky.com/Join 📬 Contact Us / Submit Your Horror Story!
