Really well-done episode—if I didn’t know beforehand that only one actor was performing the entire show, I wouldn’t have believed it—that’s how good William Conrad was. I read the story it’s based on as a child, and it scared the heck out of me. This episode was really creepy, and well done, too.

I did go ahead and listen to the other version mentioned…wow what a difference! Conrad knocks it so far out of the park the ball is beyond irretrievable. In addition to the scream, the sob in his voice when he thinks he hears breathing sent chills down my spine. Having been to a couple wax museums, I’ll agree that most figures are clearly not real and wouldn’t be mistaken as a live person. But there were a couple figures that were so well done I had trouble believing it wasn’t the actual person standing there. The level of realism was astonishing – and terrifying. Listening to this while thinking of those specific wax figures….

I’m never visiting a wax museum again.

I am also a big fan of Alfred Hitchcock Presents fan, so I looked up their adaptation. It was really fun to watch. Thanks for the heads up!

I’ve only ever heard The Price of Fear version before, so this was a treat. I didn’t realise the story went as far back as it did.
