Welcome to the Myspace.com page for the blog Escape and Suspense! at www.escape-suspense.com. My name is Christine A. Miller. I am the author of the site and your guide through the world of the two mid-Twentieth century CBS radio series SUSPENSE and ESCAPE. These two anthology radio series paved the way for television shows such as THE TWILIGHT ZONE and ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS to later follow. SUSPENSE ran on CBS Radio between 1942 and 1962, and specialized in mysteries, horror, and radio noir. (SUSPENSE was also turned into a television show that aired on CBS between 1949 and 1954. Many of these episodes are now available on DVD.) ESCAPE, SUSPENSE's sister show, ran on CBS radio between 1947 and 1954, and focused on exotic adventure, science fiction, and classic short stories. (ESCAPE is still considered to have been the best adventure series from the "Golden Age of Radio.") Unfortunately, it seems that time has not treated the legacy of either show well. Although both series excelled at the art of story-telling and left behind impressive catalogs of episodes, their relevance has been more or less forgotten. As a fan, I felt that SUSPENSE and ESCAPE deserved a home on the Internet where they could be enjoyed in their full glory. My site is designed to entertain its visitors and to provide easily accessible reference information for fans, researchers, and students. Think of it as an online reference book/storybook that is constantly being updated. Both SUSPENSE and ESCAPE are believed to be in the public domain now and I post the best recordings of these shows that I can find. Visit the home of Escape and Suspense! at www.escape-suspense.com.
