Before Agnes Moorehead portrayed "Endora" on the Bewitched TV series, she was a big part of the golden age of radio. She starred in many of the biggest radio shows of all time, alongside Orson Welles, James Stewart, Humphrey Bogart, Vincent Price, Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Jack Benny, and many more. Moorehead starred opposite Orson Welles on The Mercury Theater On the Air and The Shadow. She was dubbed "the first lady of Suspense" for having starred in more Suspense radio episodes than any other actor or actress (in this collection, you'll hear her in eight Suspense episodes, including the most famous episode in the series, "Sorry, Wrong Number"). Here are sixteen radio broadcasts that either star Agnes Moorehead or have her in the supporting cast. Enjoy!
