Radio Broadcast Log Of:
Inner Sanctum Mysteries
 
     This campy horror program is usually remembered as “The Creaking Door,” because of its signature opening of a squeaking door.  The best host of these broadcasts was the original host in the person of Raymond Edward Johnson.  “This is your host, Raymond speaking.”  He blended outrageous puns and twisted lines of death, horror and blood with his introduction to each week’s program.  Some of the best verbal jabs were near the end of Raymond’s hosting duties with Tipton Tea’s spokesperson Mary.
