HORROR FEST ’22: Leviathan 99 by Ray Bradbury

In this specially curated collection for Halloween 2022, we will be presenting at least four radio programs originally aired on BBC radio. Next up, a dramatized tale by Ray Bradbury, “Leviathan 99.”

A fantastical adaptation of Moby Dick, Ray Bradbury takes audiences past the moon and the stars in search of the greatest and brightest comet in the universe. Join a deranged captain, an eight-foot-tall telepathic spider, and our reluctant hero. You can call him Ishmael.   Originally aired on BBC Radio 3, 3 May 1968  Adapted and produced by H. B. Fortuin Stars Denys Hawthorne as Ishmael     (Obtained from archive dot org.)
