68 Vampires, Mad Scientists, and Other Denizens of the Late Night Airwaves

A Journey Through the History of Late-Night Radio

Late-night radio has always been a place for the strange and unusual. From its humble beginnings in the early 1900s, when it was used to broadcast news and weather updates, late-night radio has evolved into a haven for horror, science fiction, and other macabre genres.

In the 1950s and 1960s, late-night radio was at its peak. Stations across the country would broadcast horror and science fiction shows, often hosted by eccentric personalities who would adopt strange voices and sound effects to create a truly immersive experience for their listeners.
