Who was it who made that phone call to the emergency room -- the
one that set off the horrible chain of events that took place in
The Dark? Project Audion recreates the episode "The Dark" from
LIGHTS OUT - one of classic radio's most imaginatively gruesome
shows. It's an episode show that hasn't been heard in its complete
form since January 1938! "Lights Out" was the work of master
radio dramatist Arch Oboler, and he memorably redid "The Dark" 25
years later as a highly abridged adaptation for an LP called "Drop
Dead" - the only recording you could hear until now. But Project
Audion worked from the original half-hour 1938 script to deliver
extra thrills and chills, and leading to a climax where -- well,
that would be telling, wouldn't it? Who's afraid of The Dark? You
will be!
