The Creaking Door Radio Show - OTR

By: Creaking Door
  • Summary

  • "The Creaking Door" was a popular old-time radio (OTR) program from South Africa that echoed the style and substance of the better-known American series, "Inner Sanctum Mysteries". Known for its signature sound of a creaking door at the start of each episode, this sound effect was intended to set a spooky, atmospheric tone, much like the squeaking door in "Inner Sanctum".

    The show aired during the late 1950s and into the early 1960s. "The Creaking Door" featured a variety of horror and suspense tales, often delving into the supernatural or psychological. The stories were typically narrated by a host, who would introduce the tale and offer closing remarks that frequently included a moral or twist ending.

    While not as widely recognized internationally as its American counterparts, "The Creaking Door" holds a special place in the history of radio dramas, particularly for its ability to engage and frighten listeners with its eerie themes and chilling narratives. The show is a memorable example of the global reach and influence of the horror radio genre during its peak in the mid-20th century.
