Happy Thanksgiving! As always, we are most grateful for our listeners and today we’re celebrating with a visit to our Listener Library! Our Mysterious Listener Dave recommended we check out “The Black Room” from CBS Radio Mysterious Theater. Thanks, Dave! The story features a man locked against his will in a light-less, window-less room. The men who subjected him to this peculiar treatment and the purpose of the room itself are mysterious, but what is certain is that he needs to find a way to survive in utter isolation and darkness. Why was this man chosen for the black room? What might he discover in there? Is it helpful to have a guide during your honeymoon? Listen for yourself and find out! Then vote and let us know what you think!

Eric, the short story of the mountain prison that you are trying to think of is Manuscript Found in a Police State by Brian Aldiss. I read it in this anthology a few years ago:

Apparently, that anthology was published by Scholastic in the 70s. Maybe you read that short story when you were a youth?
