Dracula 1938 Scared to Death

    • Society & Culture

Tonight, I’m presenting a special “double-feature” episode in celebration for Halloween. The first episode is the original Mercury Theater presentation of Dracula.
Produced, directed, written, hosted, and performed by Orson Welles, with the Mercury Theatre Company, this adaptation of Bram Stoker's classic horror story, "Dracula" -- recounted by various characters in the first person. This radio play originally aired on Friday, July 11, 1938. It stars Orson Welles , Ray Collins, Elizabeth Fuller, Martin Gabel, and Agnes Moorehead. You may recognize Agnes Moorehead from her role as Samantha’s mother, Endora, in the Bewitched TV series.
