Summary
It was Halloween 1938 when twenty-three-year-old Orson Welles fooled America into thinking it had been invaded by aliens. The Mercury Theatre on the Air production of H. G. Wells' The War of the Worlds has become one of the most talked-about broadcasts in the history of the radio. It resulted in mass panic across America.
