The moon is full, there's a chill in the air, and everything smells like pumpkin spice. It's time for the annual Down These Mean Streets spooktacular special! We're trick-or-treating through the golden age of radio with eight shows that will get you in the Halloween spirit. First, Orson Welles goes for a drive in "The Hitch-hiker" from Suspense (originally aired on CBS on September 2, 1942), and Jack Benny and Harold Peary as The Great Gildersleeve each attend Halloween parties (originally aired on NBC on October 29, 1939 and October 31, 1943). We'll learn about real-life psychic phenomena in "Report on E.S.P" from The CBS Radio Workshop (originally aired on CBS on March 9, 1956) and we'll witness a small town's dark tradition in Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery" from NBC Presents Short Story (originally aired on NBC on March 14, 1951). Abbott and Costello pay a visit to Peter Lorre's sanitarium (originally aired on NBC on January 13, 1944) and a recently departed soul learns the ropes in "Good Ghost," a darkly comedic tale from Quiet Please (originally aired on ABC on October 28, 1948). Finally, the world's greatest detective hunts for a supernatural suspect in "The Sussex Vampire" from The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes (originally aired on Mutual on December 14, 1947).
