The Molle Mystery Theater / Mystery in the Air (Old Time Radio Variety)

This week on Classic Radio Rewind, We guide you through two gripping mysteries from radio’s golden era. We open with a tense psychological drama from The Molle Mystery Theater: “Female of the Species” (June 7, 1946). A seemingly ordinary woman becomes the focus of a chilling investigation when a murder exposes the darker corners of her personality. The deeper the detectives dig, the more unsettling the truth becomes.

Then, we shift into the eerie world of Mystery In The Air with Peter Lorre starring in “Beyond Good and Evil” (August 28, 1947). This haunting tale follows a man who believes he’s risen above morality itself — a belief that leads him down a path of obsession, violence, and psychological unraveling. Lorre’s unmistakable voice brings the story’s tension and madness to life.
