When I was in high school, we listened to Orson Wells reading the War of the Worlds. Awesome.

Of course, it goes well with what may be called the most FAMOUS Halloween broadcast, of any media, Orson Welles and "The Mercury Theatre on the Air" CBS Radio version of H.G.Wells' "War of the Worlds" on Sunday, October 30, 1938. While the scale of the actual public panic has probably been overly magnified, being broadcast at a time when radio was THE MEDIA for news, having insufficient (in hindsight) identification as a non-news event and at a time when Europe and Asia were in full war mode jitters, made for a 'perfect storm' and did Orson Welles to top billing.
