Happy Halloween! We’re celebrating the spooky season with CBS Radio Mystery Theater’s adaptation of Edgar Allen Poe’s short story, “The Fall of the House of Usher”! Kevin McCarthy stars in this story of Roderick Usher, a man consumed by nameless fears even as his sister falls in and out of catatonic states indistinguishable from death. What horrific obsession terrifies the siblings to such an extreme? Can anything survive the madness and rot within this house? Would this be improved if the family were simple Midwestern folk? Listen for yourself and find out! Then vote and let us know what you think!

I actually liked this, mainly because Kevin McCarthy was such a great character actor–he really made this episode, and he also got into playing more weird and eccentric characters as he got older—this is just one of them. Thought this was really good, too.
One of the best CBSRMT episodes!
