BONUS: GHOST HUNT 1949 SUSPENCE OTR PARANORMAL INVESTIGATION

“Ghost Hunt” — This particular broadcast set the stage for the genre of “found footage” horror that has become increasingly popular in recent years. Airing in 1949, “Ghost Hunt” features the “found” recording of radio personality Smiley Smith’s night in a haunted house. Mr. Smith is recording the audio of his evening spent in the home with a paranormal investigator, and at one point even tells his audience to listen with the lights off. (I did no such thing.) You can guess what Mr. Smith encounters based on the title, but it has a twist ending that I guarantee you won’t see coming.
