Millions of kids who grew up during the golden age of radio would never forget the eerie creaking door which opened every episode of Inner Sanctum Mysteries. These listeners were so scared by that door CBS duplicated the sound effect for their Radio Mystery Theater in the 1970's. Known by most as simply Inner Sanctum, the series provided plenty of spooky tales over the years and today's is no exception.

Twenty first century listeners would think, with a title such as The Undead, this episode is about zombies but that isn't the case

More Mystery & crime

Radio drama, old-time radio and historic broadcasts from the Internet Archive (its Old Time Radio collection with the Old Time Radio Researchers' sets, WWII Era Audio Recordings, the Pacifica Radio Archives, the Radio Haiti Archive, German radio plays and listeners' uploads), Wikimedia Commons (with the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision's broadcasts) and the Library of Congress. Every episode plays from its archive, which this site does not copy; rights are as each archive states them. Nothing here is called public domain on this site's say-so. In the United States, sound recordings first fixed before 15 February 1972 have federal protection under the Music Modernization Act of 2018, for most until 2067 at the latest, so most American radio of the 1930s to the 1950s is not in the public domain there. Each set shows the licence, mark or statement its archive gives, and says whose it is. Horror, crime, war and westerns are for teenage and adult profiles, racist caricature for adults only, and children’s profiles hear what was made for children. More about these archives.
