The Black Mass: Fridays at 4pm Pacific
Every Friday at 4pm Pacific time (midnight Fri/Sat GMT), join us for an episode from the landmark radio drama series The Black Mass, created at the Pacifica radio station KPFA in Berkeley, California, over fifty years ago. In 30 chilling tales of mystery, imagination and the human mind, The Black Mass brings you some of literature’s most haunting stories, by masters of the craft.
Realised with the minimum of audio equipment, the performances were quite remarkable and trod ground seldom covered by radio drama before — or since. The series includes a little over 30 episodes of eight to 30 minutes each. They will be randomly selected for broadcast.
Note that episodes will not start until the track playing at the top of the hour has finished, so the actual start time of the episode may be a few minutes after the hour.
