“Lights out, everybody.”
Created by Wyllis Cooper and later brought to new heights by Arch Oboler, Lights Out transformed radio horror through bold sound design, surreal nightmares, and stories that often placed ordinary people in impossible situations. These surviving broadcasts remain among the most unsettling and imaginative dramas of radio’s golden age.
