CBS Radio MYSTERY THEATRE is a radio drama series created and directed by Himan Brown that was broadcast on CBS Radio Network affiliates from 1974 to 1982. Later in the early 2000s the show 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.

CBS Radio MYSTERY THEATRE was broadcast each weeknight, at first with a new program each night. Later in the run, three or four episodes were new originals each week, and the remainder repeats. There were 1,399 original episodes.

Never get tired of this and can listen all day. Perfect when you do hand work because you do not have to watch. I make a lot of progress and much better than tv watching.

[geoffkburton]

Thankyou for bringing these great old programs to us . This brings back memories of listening to old time radio programs rebroadcasts with my father when I was a kid .

[chrisgonzales]

I listen to this with my pop for years. We would fire up the radio at 9 pm. Sit with a snack and listen. Been so many years.

[kathleenmeienberg]

Perfect timing for a knitting on a cold bitter winter night and listening to Old Radio mysteries. Thank you!

Thank you for another fantastic set. When I listened to these in the 70s, E.G. would give his little thoughts on the subject matter, and I'd be like, "wow, just like grandpa talks!! 😳" now I'm much older, and good ol E.G. still keeping me in check..one favorite of my grandpa's, if I can share, "Never be the one to take the smile off of someone's face" ooff..to this day, I live by that. It's so profound.

[NYMArts]

Perfect for the rainy weather. Cozy...

The best ASMR and reminded me of back the blizzard of 1978 Andre all sat around the radio while dad figured out how to get food over 3+ feet of snow good times 😊

The Deadly Process is a great story. Then that twist at the end. The whole thing is an emotional kaleidoscope.

Art Bell was so awesome. When he was the villain, I always thought he sounded like Edward G. Robinson.

[justamannn]

Just had the strangest thought. That being, the times I have experienced sleep paralysis, and I could not wake my self up, that perhaps my astral body had still not returned. I have very strange and varied dreams swinging from wildly beautiful, to absolutely terrifying in fact, I just awoke from a dream (nightmare), where a group of people I was with, were made to lay on the ground, when 2-3 in the group produced guns and were preparing to kill the ones in the group who had betrayed them in some way. The one lady with the gun was about to shoot me, when another one of the assailants told her that I wasn't one of the ones and they were questioning this and I believe she had decided to shoot me in the head anyway, for one less witness. So strange, I was carrying on conversation with these people, like they were close friends, but knew none of them in this life. Another strange element of this was when I awoke, it had only been 10 minutes, but in the dream at least a few hours had lapsed.
