Read more From AudioFile The Mystery Theatre series collects several chilling tales originally broadcast in the 1960s and presents them in four-packs of fear. This first volume features well-loved classic tales, as well as some lesser-known pieces. The first cassette treats mystery lovers to "The Tell-Tale Heart," told as frighteningly as it ever was in any dank parlor or at any camp fire. "The Kitchen Table" gives domesticity an ancient twist. The performances here seem slightly overdone, but the chill of the story is not lost. On the second cassette, the British double-header (including a Sherlock Holmes story) balances the production like a mystery travelogue.
