About this episode
Clutch your rosary and uncork your vial of holy water! This week on The Shiver Show, we unleash one of the creepiest episodes of the CBS Radio Mystery Theater: “Possessed by the Devil” (1974). Hosted by the unflappable E.G. Marshall, written by Ian Martin, and scored by horror maestro Hyman Brown, this is a delicious horror classic.There must have been something in the air, because this cautionary tale of possession and damnation came one year after the release of, "The Exorcist" - a film that scared the pants off of anyone who watched it. In Possessed by the Devil, an injured man is wheeled into a hospital ward, and placed beside a dying patient - that’s when all hell breaks loose. Donald Buka stars as Mike, the man who falls under spell of Satan - or is it Beelzebub? Greg, our Shiver Show theologian, is still pondering this important question. Mary and Greg discuss the off-the-leash acting, whether the cat was feline or human, and how to make holy water. This is perfect Hallowe'en listening! Join us!Thank you for listening!
