DARK VICTORY: THE NIGHT ORSON WELLES RULED THE AIR • ON OCT. 30, 1938, Orson Welles, the gifted, 23-year-old co-founder of the Mercury Theatre, gathered his troupe for its regular Sunday radio program. That week it was an adaptation of The War of the Worlds, about a Martian invasion. In the frantic hours before the 8 p.m. broadcast, Welles struggled to breathe life into the rather formal script, transferring the action from London to New Jersey and adding touches to make the drama seem like breaking news. He didn’t think he’d succeeded and was sure the show would flop. Which only proves that even brilliant wunderkinds can be oh-so-wrong sometimes. One reader recalls that strange night—when her neighbors looked in fear at the skies and Welles shot to superstardom.

A LASTING STORY • The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells was an instant hit and has never been out of print since 1898, when it was published as a novel after its successful magazine serialization.

NIGHTMARE ON THE AIR • Welles’ War of the Worlds may be history’s most famous horror radio broadcast, but it certainly wasn’t the only one. As fuel for the imagination, radio was especially suited to tales of terror. These were among the most acclaimed horror series.
