The War Of The Worlds!

  *On the evening of October 30th 1938, Orson Welles and the players of his Mercury Theatre were preparing to broadcast the latest in their series of weekly literary adaptations. The Halloween production of H.G.Wells' The War of the Worlds should have been no different to any that had gone before, but before the hour was up, Welles would find himself at the centre of a perfect storm of controversy. What should have been a simple if innovative retelling of a tale of alien invasion had triggered one of the first great mass panics of the modern media age.

   Now, just in time for Halloween, I've posted the broadcast on my site, (to your right) so you can experience what hysteria that panicked a nation!
