Nightfall is the title of a radio drama series produced and aired by CBC Radio (see Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) from July 1980 to June 1983. While primarily a supernatural/horror series, Nightfall featured some episodes in other genres, such as science fiction, mystery, fantasy, and human drama. One episode was even adapted from a folk song by Stan Rogers. Some of Nightfall's episodes were so terrifying that the CBC registered numerous complaints and some affiliate stations dropped it. Despite this, the series went on to become one of the most popular shows in CBC Radio history, running 100 episodes that featured a mix of original tales and adaptations of both classic and obscure short stories.

Hooked on this series

Wish there were more episodes! Scary and gross! Love the background tunes because they really set the mood. Love listening to the hosts and their introductions! Heard one episode and read about how the Nightfall episodes were so scary and gross that radio stations were told to stop airing them. Been listening to them ever since and love listening to the old episodes again and again!
