Murder at Midnight - Single Episodes

About this film

MURDER AT MIDNIGHT Murder at Midnight was a transcribed program of macabre tales frequently featuring a supernatural twist. Produced in New York and distributed by World Broadcasting System, the series was the brainchild of Louis G. Cowan, the man behind Quiz Kids six years earlier. Fifty-two episodes were recorded from mid-April through December 1946. Robert Newman was hired as the show’s lead writer but a dozen other authors provided scripts during the program’s run. Among them were Joseph Ruscoll, Max Erlich and William Morwood. Murder at Midnight was directed by Anton M. Leder, and hosted by Raymond Morgan, who delivered the memorable opening lines over Charles Paul's organ theme. Los Angeles’ KFI was the first station to air the series but it would eventually be heard across the continental United States, Alaska, and Hawaii. Murder at Midnight continued to be aired in syndication until the early 1960s. This synopsis is based on the authoritative research of Karl Schadow. NOTE: Files Updated on 29-Dec-2019.
