About this episode
Donovan's Brain is so horrible, so bloodcurdling, that you might need therapy after you listen to it. The story comes from the mind of Curt Siodmak, whose 1942 science fiction novel of the same name was immediately made into the 1944 radio drama that you are about to hear. It has a stellar performance by Orson Welles as the evil Doctor Patrick Cory (and Donovan).
Mary Labrie and co-host Greg Flynn talk about what makes this radio drama so very dreadful. Listen now!
