Frankenstein - Old Time Radio Horror
Few stories have inspired film, television and radio as much as Frankenstein by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley. This 1952 old time radio drama from the Suspense series condenses Shelley's novel into a tight thirty minute episode.
This production has wonderful performances by the lead voice actors, Hebert Marshall and Joseph Kerns, and immersive sound effects, especially in Victor's spooky laboratory.
Mary and Greg delve into the intriguing history behind the seminal novel by Mary Shelley, that was first penned by Shelley when she was eighteen.
Frankenstein is considered by many to be the first science fiction novel and is often listed in the top one hundred novels of all time.
