@@zero_bs_tolerance8646 I'm relieved that you're okay. Even though I'm not uploading, I try to check my comments every day. Thanks for asking about my wife, but she remains very weak and requires my help with everything. How about you? Is hubby okay? . . . and are you okay? It's really good to hear from you - Charlie

@@SuspenseESCAPEremastered I'm sorry if I worried you. Thank you for caring. We are doing okay here in Winnipeg. We are healthy, have food and a home with no big bills and for that, I'm grateful. I know that there are a great many people who are in dire straits. We still stay home and mask up when we do go out. We're not eligible for the vaccine for until September. It's been a long year, man. I wish you peace and sending you a big ol' hug, my friend. Stay safe.

Good story! Gregory Peck is always good. This story seems to bear some resemblance to another Suspense broadcast I listened to a couple weeks ago: "The Beast Must Die," starring Herbert Marshall. Interestingly enough, that story was later made into a French movie in the '70's entitled "This Man Must Die."

Thanks again for posting your thoughts!

Many series used the title "Nightmare", for many different stories. One of the strangest was the one episode that Elliott Lewis did for "CBS Radio Workshop", at a very difficult time in his life. He wrote, directed, produced, and starred in this tour-de-force stream-of-consciousness journey into the mind of a man stricken by a seizure.
It aired on May 5, 1957, but had been recorded and edited in the weeks before. And those weeks weren't happy. On April 30, he and Cathy had separated...on their 14th wedding anniversary. She filed for divorce, accusing him of staying out late and not telling her where he was. Knowing how much work he put into every radio show he created, I believe he was completely immersed in putting together the episode, as an escape from his troubles at home.
Something else: His character's wife is played by Mary Jane Croft. Was it because he and Cathy could no longer work together? Or because her illnesses had made her unable to work?
Or had he and Mary Jane already fallen in love? (They'd worked together many times since the 1940s.) Or was she merely the person he'd cast in the role?
We'll never know.

Yeah, I've listened to that. It's a bold piece of work by Lewis, and it is quite unusual.

[@SuspenseESCAPEremastered]

I just re-read this. You raise some interesting questions about Lewis and MJ Croft . . . and I don't know the answers!

I'd love to know more about Cathy and Elliott off stage. I have read that at one time they were called "the hardest working couple in show business".

[@Badfinger4]

Thanks for this comment. Going to check out that radio show right now!
