Re-Imagined Radio presents “Mysterious Traveler”

The strange nighttime train rides of the “Mysterious Traveler” are the focus of Re-Imagined Radio’s double-feature episode in January. The radio anthology series, originally heard on the Mutual Broadcasting System from 1943 to 1952, made the voice of narrator Maurice Talpin familiar across America. He opened every episode with “This is the Mysterious Traveler, inviting you to join me on another journey into the strange and the terrifying.”

The “Mysterious Traveler” premieres at 1 p.m. Jan. 15 on KXRW-FM (99.9), Vancouver, and KXRY-FM (91.1 and 107.1), Portland. Subsequent broadcasts and streams will be provided by local, regional and international broadcast partners. Re-Imagined Radio will air “The Man the Insects Hated,” about a man trying to create the perfect formula for an insect killer,” and “Behind the Locked Door,” considered a masterpiece of horror about a cave in Arizona with a deadly legacy.
