CBS Radio Mystery Theater, Escape, Suspense, and The Whistler tune in with hurricanes, flooded waters, wartime peril, and crimes that refuse to stay buried. Come in out of the rain if you like. The signal has already locked the door behind you.☂ Hurricane — A desperate pair reaches an isolated beach house and discovers the storm outside may be safer than the armed standoff within. ⚓ Flood on the Goodwins — A harrowing wartime crossing of the English Channel becomes a struggle against black water, fog, and a commander with death at the tiller. ⚡ Night of the Storm — A condemned man has only hours left while three people who know he is innocent race the weather and the clock to save him. ☔ Man in the Storm — An embezzler hopes a flood will cover his tracks, only to learn that bad weather has a talent for uncovering worse men. The classic OTR signal fades under the thunder—but something is still knocking from the other side of the rain.
