## Resource

CBS Radio Mystery Theater presents “The Wakeful Ghost,” episode 232, originally broadcast March 3, 1975. Written by Ian Martin and produced and directed by Himan Brown, this CBS Radio Network mystery stars Paul Hecht, Virginia Payne, Jada Rowland, Leon Janney, and Ian Martin. With a brief respite before his medical internship, Irish-American student Brian Makin travels to Ireland in search of family connections. His visit becomes a romantic, supernatural encounter shaped by old-world folklore, a ghost, and a leprechaun.
