The Haunting Hour

                                                                               
This is another example of the mystery/suspense 
series of the 1940s. It ran for a year with 52 
episodes. It never had a national sponsor but 
was syndicated for its entire run. And none of 
the remaining programs give credit to the cast, 
writers, producers, directors or anyone connected 
with the show. It began with the ominous "No. No. 
Stay where you are. Do not break the stillness of this moment. For this is a time of mystery, a time when imagination is 
free and moves swiftly forward... swiftly, silently. This is... The Haunting Hour". And then began well scripted and acted 
stories of mystery and suspense. The program closed once more with the narrator "From shadows and stillness, mystery 
weaves a spell of strangest fascination, charging the mind with doubts and fear, for mystery is a strange companion, a 
living memory in... The Haunting Hour.
