I remember the night this one aired on the radio. I was listening alone in my bedroom, in Los Angeles. CBS Radio Mystery Theater came on at 9:06, right after the news update, on KNX 1070am. When he spent the night in that house, and she called him up and said, "Run...." I literally felt my heart in my throat. I can still hear it. It still spooks me to this day. Some of these shows were better than anything on televison at that time. This was a GOOD one.

RUN!!........Lol...it was very good. CW

I think the basic premise of this story appears in several episodes of CBSRMT, but it's still a fairly good episode. Good sound and commercials. By the way, what's with the guy who wants to buy a juvenile? Now that's creepy.

The Heel of Achilles is my favorite.

I listen to a lot of these shows online. The Heel of Achilles is one of the few episodes I have on cassette from when I was a kid. This episode is one of my favorites; as the quality of episodes can be hit or miss (I skip almost all episodes authored by Elspeth Eric), I really appreciate one like this that has reasonable pacing, a storyline that works, no repetition in dialogue, and a believable twist. A haunted house? A rich guy insecure about his relationship with a much-younger wife? An insightful psychiatrist? Classic elements of a good mystery. Enjoy this one!

One of my favorites. I remember listening to these in the 70s. Mom would put it on to go to bed by. Lol, I was only 9 or So! Guess she really wanted me asleep! I think it was KNX. I was living in West Covina, .ca. at the time.

It seemed to me that the story had two threads that didn't go together. The husband seemed to go to pieces too easily also.
