Everyone is talking about TV. Why not go back into the radio days to the people that got it done without the advantage of props. And the term horror has changed throughout time.
A list could include:
Escape - (Adventure - Mystery - Horror)
Inner Sanctum - (Mystery - Horror)
Quiet Please - (Mystery - Horror)
Suspense - (Mystery - Horror)
Weird Circle - (Mystery - Horror)
The Whistler - (Mystery - Horror)
The Shadow - (Mystery - Horror)
And of course the great broadcast in October 1938 adapted from the book written by H G Wells, War of the World. The book was originally situating the story in England.
These are the fore runners that made TV, and the movies, into the genre they are today and gave people like the original horror works at Universal Studios in LA or Pinewood Studios in England (Hammer) their chance. True horror is great as it goes to the very core of human fears.

Yeah, Cosby is a douche, but this is classic!
My mom was 14 when this broadcast happened. She told us about a neighbor rushing over in a panic to fill them in.
