The Gibbering Things (SHAD)

A visit to Aunt Susan leads to an encounter with hideous, gibbering creatures and their mad creator.

This episode marks Bret Morrison's first appearance as The Shadow. If you like melodrama, this will be a great listen for you. Most vintage radio has some degree of melodrama, but The Shadow is one of those shows that really takes it to the next level.

Slight spoiler ahead...

This show is "a bit too much" for me, and yet there are some great moments in it. The whole "human cattle" thing ... shudder.
