Static | A 100 Word Story

#264 The Twilight Zone S2 E20 3/10/1961

Every Friday night Mary sits by her old transistor radio and turns the dial to her favorite station. In search of an old time radio show from long before she was born. It’s never in the same place twice but she knows how to find it by the familiar crackle, pop and static sounds.

Once she’s found it, she sits back in her oversized chair, hot cocoa in hand, and closes her eyes. The host announces the players while shrill music plays in the background.

“Tonight we have Mary, listening to our radio program. And her killer lurking behind her.”
