    The Hermit's Cave- Hanson's Ghost

    The Hermits Cave radio show was a syndicated horror series that ran from 1937 to 1944. Scripts were sent to local radio stations so they could produce the show with their own local cast. It is believed that over 800 episodes were produced, but fewer than 40 recordings are known to still exist.

    We believe this episode, “Hanson’s Ghost,” was broadcast on October 29, 1944, but we do not know where it was produced.
