The Price of Fear – Speciality of the House

The Price of Fear was a Horror/Mystery Radio serial produced by BBC Radio during the 1970s. The host and star of the show was Vincent Price.

This show stands out in Price’s radio career as some of the episodes were based on fictional adventures of Vincent Price himself, playing himself, while others had him merely introducing the macabre tale of the week.

Over the coming weeks and months, I’ll be bringing more of these fantastic old radio shows to URsTV for your listening pleasure.  Without further ado, I give you my favourite, “Speciality of the House”.

    Lay down on the couch, earphones in and listened to this little tale and it was absolutely brilliant! A seemingly simple story told by the horror master himself, Vincent Price. The eerie ending still managed to put a smile on my face or was it the sinister laughter?

      Oh Yeah!!! It's absolutely my favourite old-time radio show! Vincent Price is legendary and his first-person portrayal makes it all the more chilling.
      :o D
