  • Summary

  • On the final Geek Speak treats episode for this year, we go back to the greatest Halloween prank in history...although it wasn't planned to be. Orson Welles and The Mercury Theatre broadcast a radio adaptation of H.G. Wells' War of the Worlds on the night of October 30, 1938. The performance was so convincing that it created a panic, as listeners thought there was an actual alien invasion taking place.
