A creaking door and a chorus of haunting organ music. No radio show opening is more memorable for many fans than the one heard on Inner Sanctum Mysteries. This disturbing simple salvo led people into thirty minutes of suspense and horror sprinkled with puns from a creepy host, all of which can now be heard again in sparkling audio quality from Radio Archives.

The First Alien Contactee | Albert Coe's 1920 Extraterrestrial Incident When He Saved a UFO Occupant

The First Alien Contactee | Albert Coe's 1920 Extraterrestrial Incident When He Saved a UFO Occupant

In 1920, a young man on a fishing trip in the Canadian wilderness stumbled upon an injured stranger trapped in a rocky crevice — and the "plane" parked nearby was no plane at all. What followed was a lifelong friendship that revealed humanity's ancient past and an alien perspective on where we're headed as a species. IN THIS EPISODE: We all love cute pet photos – so often those photos almost make our furry friends look human – even smiling in some cases. But one particular type photo being shared via email – a photo of a smiling dog – would never be described as cute, as it drives some people literally insane. Is it real, or just another cyber-located urban legend? (Smile.Dog) *** Being kidnapped by gypsies is a somewhat negative stereotype towards those who truly live the lifestyle. They don’t typically go out of their way to snatch people away… but in one particular circumstance it truly did happen – and it created an incredibly strange tale. (Kidnapped By Gypsies) *** Albert Coe’s story sounds more like a Stephen Spielberg film as opposed to a true story. But Coe insists it really did happen – that he saved the life of an extraterrestrial – and it resulted in them becoming lifelong friends. (I Saved E.T.’s Life) *** Pennhurst Asylum was shuttered in 1987 – but that doesn’t mean there aren’t any souls still living there.
