The Best of Scary Stories, Vol. 1

Three of our favorite scary stories from Halloween specials of our
past.  Radio Story: The Thing by Thomas McKean When Thomas was
a kid, he and a friend saw a shadowy oblong shape following them on
a beach. Years later, he feels chained to his bed in the middle of
the night when the same figure, then two more hover over him.
