Listen With The Lights Off

Hello, little goblins. Resurrected from our year long slumber to haunt your ears once again, Listen With The Lights Off: A Radio Horrorshow awakens this Halloween night of the year 2022 to kick off our third season of delicious original horror. We are back to provide our annual antidote to the poisonous toxic positivity our fellow beloved troubled souls have endured since the last time we spoke. Ew! Scary!I am your host, Jennifer D. Corley, and I'm also the Program Director of So Say We All, the San Diego-based arts and education nonprofit that makes this and so many other artistic adventures possible. I am thrilled to be ringing in this All Hallow's Eve with a new radio play.And we're going to be delivering three more episodes across the month of November, because if any insufferable jerk can declare themselves worthy of not just a birthday, but of a “birthday month!”, we think the magic hours of Halloween should reign for at least sixty days. And besides, Thanksgiving is far more terrifying to most people than Halloween anyway, because families are real.The story you're about to hear is more satisfying than a pillowcase full of Snickers Bars and Reese's Ghosts, but I want you to dig in and discover it for yourself. So let's keep the spooky season going another month with this kickoff story titled, “Survivor,” by Sarah LaBrie.Performed by Debra Bass, Dallas McLaughlin, and Carla Nell.
