Publisher's summary

For 20 years Suspense brought radio listeners incalculable sharp inhales, tingled spines, and shortened breaths. Every week brought a fresh slate, a fresh cast, and a fresh challenge with an attention to detail and consistent script quality that never lost ground. From beginning to end, Suspense stands as one of radio’s lasting achievements - and the creative peak of the broadcast anthology format.

Suspense: Omnibus includes 20 of the best episodes from the series that, true to form, feature ordinary people - painfully ordinary - who through no fault of their own, find themselves immersed in extraordinary circumstances. Small, innocuous, it-doesn’t-really-hurt-anyone crimes spiral wildly out of control. Innocent white lies turned dark and terrifying in their consequences. Playing these ordinary people are extraordinary stars including John Dehner, Charles Laughton, Howard Duff, Rosalind Russell, Dick Powell, Ray Milland, Gregory Peck, Sheldon Leonard, Vincent Price, Dana Andrews, William Bendix, Lena Horne, Orson Welles, Ed Gardner, and more. For radio enthusiasts, there’s nothing quite like Suspense! Digitally remastered for your listening enjoyment.
