🎃About "The Shadow" Old Time Radio Show
"The Shadow" - One of the most popular radio shows in history. The show went on the air in August of 1930.
"Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!" The opening lines of the "Detective Story" program captivated listeners and are instantly recognizable even today. Originally the narrator of the series of macabre tales, the eerie voice known as "The Shadow" became so popular to listeners that "Detective Story" was soon renamed "The Shadow," and the narrator became the star of the Old Time Mystery Radio series, which ran until 1954.
Agnes Moorehead, the first Margot Lane figure never seen, only heard, "The Shadow" was an invincible crime fighter. He possessed many gifts which enabled him to overcome any enemy. Besides his tremendous strength, he could defy gravity, speak any language, unravel any code, and become invisible with his famous ability to "cloud men's minds."
Along with his team of operatives, "The Shadow" battled adversaries with chilling names like The Black Master, Kings of Crime, The Five Chameleons, and of course, The Red Menace.
"The Shadow's" exploits were also avidly followed by readers in "The Shadow Magazine," which began in 1931 following the huge success of the Old Time Mystery Radio program.
