CAL preps for new season with race, Fright Night

Published 9:45 am Friday, September 22, 2017

October rolls in next weekend, and the KCAL Old Time Radio Troupe is so anxious for Halloween to arrive that they are unleashing some spookiness four weeks early!

The group will present its highly-anticipated “Halloween Fright Night” old-time radio show reproduction on Friday, Sept. 29 and Saturday, Sept. 30 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, Oct. 1 at 2:30 p.m. Tickets for the performances are $7.50 each, and along with the heebie-jeebies from the performance itself, will include refreshments and special surprises—which may or may not creep and crawl!

This year’s “Halloween Fright Night” show will consist of an episode of the radio series “Suspense” and “The Strange Dr. Weird,” as well as Edgar Allen Poe’s “The Tell Tale Heart.”
