Horror Drama (1940 - 42)

Dark FantasyDark Fantasy is and excellent old time radio horror and mystery program that was initially broadcast out of WKY, Oklahoma City.  Dark Fantasy had more emphasis on horror rather than mystery but the shows also covered some science fiction and murder mysteries.  The show was so scary that it was broadcast in the on Friday nights when the nation's children were in bed. 

Dark Fantasy was the brainchild of celebrated old time radio horror writer Scott Bishop. Bishop was also the creator of Mysterious Traveler and The Sealed Book—both excellent horror old time radio shows with lasting appeal.

This series is not to be confused with the series, Dark Venture, Dark Fantasy was syndicated around the nation after just 8 weeks of local broadcasts.  Scott Bishop continued to be the sole writer for Dark Fantasy creating every chilling episode.  The announcer of Dark Fantasy was Keith Paynton.  The show was quite popular but only remained on the air for one year. 

See also Escape, Inner Sanctum, Lights Out, Mystery in the Air, Suspense, The Whistler, and Weird Circle.

    I love Dark Fantasy and wish it went longer than it did. The Man Who Came Back, Demon Tree and Death is a Savage Deity are among the best

    This is one of the series I've finished listening to, and it's too bad it was so short. Worth getting though; it was a good listen.

    This was produced at old WKY studios in Oklahoma City. I was not alive when it came on there, thus my interest. It was as good as any other old scary radio program of the time. I am very glad I purchased it and very proud of this local production even if before I was born to hear it originally
