This week we go way back for an episode of The Witch’s Tale, “The Statue of Thor”! The story features a hedonistic sculptor who constantly ridicules the brawny model posing for him. As the artist grows more cruel and self-indulgent, he may incur the wrath of the gods! Will the the model catch on to the artist’s true intentions? What will the statue look like when it is complete? Can we remember the details of any of our past episodes? Listen for yourself and find out! Then vote and let us know what you think!

(UPDATE! As one of our listeners astutely pointed out in the comments: “This episode is actually from the Australian run of the series, not the American and Miriam Wolfe is not in this episode.” Thank you, Jeff, for catching the mistake! Our apologies for the error.) This week, the Society revisits Alonzo Deen Cole’s landmark series The Witch’s Tale! “The Firing Squad” presents the story of a World War I soldier whose fear of death drives him to desperate choices. Will he pay the ultimate price for his mistakes? How different would this story be if it had been presented a year later? Can we get through an episode without mentioning the Shadow?  Listen for yourself and find out! Then vote and let us know what you think!

Old Nancy from The Witch’s Tale provides the Society with this week’s episode, The Devil Doctor! The Witch’s Tale was the first horror series ever produced for radio, and writer/director Alonzo Deen Cole set the standard for everything that was to follow. Is this show an innovative work of frenzied genius or does the mad pace push the story from horror to farce? Can a character be defined both by reason and faith? Is this cast actually receiving rewrites as they perform? Listen for yourself and find out! Then vote and let us know what you think:
