The Creaking Door

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Creaking Door was an old-time radio series of horror and suspense shows originating in South Africa.

The Old Time Radio Researchers Group reports 42 extant episodes in MP3 circulation (http://otrr.org/FILES/Logs_txt/The%20Creaking%20Door.txt). Yet no currently available program logs for the series indicate the year of the series' broadcast (though it was likely sometime in the 1950s, given the generally high audio quality of the available shows), or the total number of episodes, and only a handful of them are known by their broadcast order. The stories are thrillers in the Inner Sanctum vein, and generally thought of favorably by most fans of OTR.

In one episode, Dangerous Dive, a 1942 shipwreck is referred to as having been submerged for 24 years. This would lead one to infer that the program aired in 1966.
