I had this on cassette tape when I was a kid. Used to listen to it every night. Yeah, I am a nerd.

I thought that might have been him! That's awesome!

It’s not Holloway. It’s Percy Helton. He did a number of Shadow episodes. Very distinctive voice. Google him and get some pictures. You might recognize him.

@@heavenofinvention So I googled it and it said Sterling Holloway as Anton Spivak. It also says Sterling Holloway in the cast list inside the Shadow collection I have sitting on my entertainment center shelf. Percy Helton was not in this episode.

@@orbitalbutt6757 Thanks for taking the time to research this, but I’ll have to stick with Helton. I’m very familiar with Helton’s voice from having heard him through the years in movies and on TV, and he was known for that high-pitched raspiness. A result, I think, of some of his Broadway work. I’m also familiar with Holloway’s voice, and I just don’t hear him at all in this episode. Your sources could be wrong, something that is not at all uncommon. I’ve found errors on sites such as Wikipedia and IMBD. It happens. (Of course, I readily acknowledge that I could be wrong,) I hope others will join our conversation. I love this kind of thing. Great fun. And I enjoy making contact with another lover of old-time radio. It’s an under-appreciated medium in this video mad age.

@@heavenofinvention Old-time radio is excellent, I recently got a box set of the Suspense! series and it was well worth the money just to hear “The House on Cypress Canyon.” Radio dramas force you to flex your imagination in ways that television and cinema don’t, and in ways that are specific to each listener. For instance, your mental image of Anton Spivak or Lamont Cranston is almost assuredly totally different from my own. Keep listening, friend

This one was amazing. Back then when there were no terrorist bombings like in the 2000s and 2010s. The idea of a madman bombing a city would have been unimaginable but after 9/11, ISIS and the war on terror this felt way too real.

I love The Shadow. His stories from the radio are really great. Do you plan to put up any more stories from his time on the radio?
