The Trunk

By: Pete Lutz

Narrated by: full cast

Inspired by classic pulp fiction and old-time radio programs, the Narada Radio Company endeavors to create audio dramas that go from amusing to terrifying.

To some, antiques are nothing more than worthless junk. To others, a newfound treasure. When an old man brings home a recently purchased steamer trunk from an auction, he acquires more than he bargained for in this compelling supernatural mystery. Featuring a full cast of voice actors with sound effects and music.

Written by Pete Lutz, the audio play was named the First Prize winner of the 2015 Marion Thauer Brown Audio Drama Scriptwriting Award.

Excellent

This one starts out like it's going to be a retelling of the classic Lights Out! episode "The Story of Mr. Maggs" (retitled "The Chest" when it was broadcast on The Devil and Mr O), but it's really a complete reimagining of the story and the ending surprised me! A great full-cast audio drama by the Narada Radio Company.
