Well, September is here and that means you can stream a brand-new FANGORIA'S DREADTIME STORIES episode for FREE or purchase it via download, commercial free with extended scenes, for only $1.99. September's episode is entitled "The Final Battlefield" and your host into the macabre, as always, is Malcolm McDowell. "The Final Battlefield" is written by Barry Richert, who also brought you "The Dark Enforcer." Here's the plot for "The Final Battlefield" ...

After a four-year tour of duty in Viet Nam, Private Daniel Conway is glad to be home in Clover Ridge, Iowa. But his joy is short-lived when he is haunted by frightening visions of The Hangman, a vicious Viet Cong officer with a penchant for torture whom Daniel encountered during his stay in a prisoner-of-war camp. Pushed to the brink of madness by the continual appearances of his tormenter, Daniel is forced to ask himself an unthinkable question: Has The Hangman followed him home?

The cast includes: Malcolm McDowell (Host), Tim Dadabo (Daniel), JoBe Cerny (Frank), Tom Tran (Hangman), Danny Goldring (Merle), Gary Tiedeman (Keith & Corporal), Kurt Naebig (Lieutenant), Jim McCance (Cab Driver & Fangoria Announcer) and Carl Amari (Soldier). Here's a cast picture:

You may recognize Tom Tran, who plays "The Hangman" - he starred in the 1987 war-comedy "Good Morning Vietnam" as Robin Williams' friend Tuan.

I hope you enjoyed last month's episode "Talking in the Dark" by Dennis Etchison. His next script is "The Blood Kiss" which is based on his famous short story. You can expect our audio drama of "The Blood Kiss" sometime in early 2013.

Don't forget that "The Final Battlefield" is yours to stream FREE the entire month of September. If you'd like to own it commercial free with extended scenes, please digitally-download it for only $1.99. For those of you who are unfamiliar with this radio series - here's the scoop:

FANGORIA'S DREADTIME STORIES is a new-time radio drama series produced in the flavor of classic radio from the 1930's, 40's and 50's but using today's state-of-the-art digital technology. Each and every month a new 45-minute episode will be available for you to hear anytime you'd like just by logging on to the Fangoria website at www.fangoria.com and streaming the episode for FREE (the streams contain a few national commercials).

Each episode will 'thrill you and chill you' but I warn you: These radio dramas are not for the feint of heart. We recommend that persons under the age of 14 not tune in! Although these episodes are meant to amuse and exercise your imagination - they can be quite scary, shocking, and include adult language and adult situations. FANGORIA'S DREADTIME STORIES are hosted by acclaimed actor, Malcolm McDowell. They are written by top writers of today and include full casts (often featuring Hollywood celebrities), movie-quality sound effects and original music scores by Fangoria's Editor-in-Chief, and accomplished composer, Chris Alexander.

We launched this series October, 2011 and all of our past shows are available for digital-download to any listening device for only $1.99 each. The digital-downloads are commercial free with extended scenes (the director's cut). And don't forget that the radio drama scripts of current and past episodes are available for you to print PDF copies for FREE. These are the same scripts used by Malcolm McDowell and the actors. It's fun to print your copy and read along while listening.

This series is also available on Sirius/XM and on CD in special collector editions from AudioGo at: http://www.audiogo.com/

Next month, you won't want to miss our Halloween/October episode "Psychomanteum" by M. J. Elliott. AND as a SPECIAL BONUS we will include (in both the free stream and on the full version for purchase) a 6-minute horror extra entitled "Monster Therapy" by legendary electro shock rocker and lyricist Kevin Ogilvie (aka Nivek Ogre) of SKINNY PUPPY and his good pal and accomplished writer/musician/actor, Joe Moe. Don't miss this abstract, dark psychodrama of a doctor who can hear a man's voice from the world beyond in his gramophone.

Here's the plot for September's episode "Psychomanteum":

New York in the early 20th Century – something is murdering and mutilating the families of the city’s noted psychologists. Is a former colleague of Dr. Alex Quentin responsible for these horrible crimes? Or is the culprit from a place beyond human comprehension?

You may recall M.J. Elliott's previous episodes: "Living Space," "A Heated Premonition" and "Table Scraps" - all three of which had great feedback from fans.
