Mystery House - Single Episodes


(4.2 Sterne; 77 Bewertungen)

Mystery House is a unique radio program from the 1950s, created by Dan and Barbara Glenn, who owned a publishing firm of the same name. This innovative show featured the staff of Mystery House acting out new novels before they were accepted for publication, providing a proving ground for their literary works.

Each episode was adapted from a novel that the Glenns were considering for publication, with the entire staff participating in the production. They contributed by rewriting scripts for radio, performing roles, and creating sound effects, making it a collaborative effort. Unfortunately, only fifteen episodes of this intriguing series are known to exist.


This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.

Good Shows But Very Muddy Sounding. Fix Up?


(2 Sterne)

These are good shows, from what I can make out. The sound is very muddy. I tried many equalizer settings that didn't help much. Is there an audio mixing engineer here that can process these shows? Probably would have to use some phase shifting to bring them back to intelligibility.

Restored versions of Mystery House


(5 Sterne)

Radio Archives out of Spokane, Washington has completely restored each of the existing radio shows from Mystery House back to a crystal quality that probably is better than when they initially were aired depending on the strength of the radio station. They are available for sale in one complete volume from Radio Archives which is the only group I know of that has even attempted to restore this particular radio show. If you like this series, you will definitely enjoy the restoration efforts and are only available through Radio Archives which is listed on the Internet.

These stories are very well written and acted out wonderfully. My only criticism is the excessive playing of the pipe organ.

great idea!

as they say when it opens these are all plays done by staff at mystery house publishing before they accept a manuscript. but there are more than the 15 it says in the description. despite some sound problems these are great stories. all acted by the publishing company. good fun listening if you like the old otr recordings

Thirty-two episodes here

The description of this series laments that only 15 episodes were collected. someone found more?! thanks, energetic production worth saving.

REALLY


(0.5 Sterne)

All these really good old radio shows I encountered this one..For one the sound is nothing short of horrendous,insipid,down right extremely difficult to listen to letting long getting into the story..Don't missunderstand me I do know these shows are really old..But putting that aside there's no excuse for the repulsive sound..Thanks to you all for taking the time out to put these shows up..But for pete sake do something about the sound bits you select..Too put it bluntly this is to difficult to listen too..very,very,very,very painful to get through any of it....

finding myself tired of all the deceitful people and death
