Lights Out

Lights Out was a very popular old-time radio show in the United States. It was one of the first horror and supernatural-themed network shows, before Suspense and Inner Sanctum. From January 1934 to the summer of 1947, versions of Lights Out aired on different networks at different times. Eventually, the show moved to television. In 1946, NBC Television brought Lights Out to TV in a series of four live specials. These specials were produced by Fred Coe, who also wrote three of the scripts. Cooper was asked by NBC to write the script for the first episode, "First Person Singular." The story is told from the point of view of a murderer who is not seen, kills his annoying wife, and is then put to death. Variety called this first episode "undoubtedly one of the best dramatic shows yet seen on a television screen," but Lights Out did not become a regular NBC-TV show until 1949.
