Step into the shadows with The Whistler, the classic crime and mystery anthology that aired from 1942 to 1955. Each standalone half-hour follows a different ordinary person who thinks they've planned the perfect crime, only to be stalked by fate and taunted by the eerie, omniscient title narrator — heard in his haunting whistled theme and dry, knowing asides, voiced at various times by talents including Bill Forman, Gale Gordon and Joseph Kearns. With suspenseful noir storytelling and signature ironic twist endings where guilt inevitably catches up, it's original old-time radio at its most atmospheric.
