Petra's Dark & Dreamy
THE WAR OF THE WORLDS, CHAPTERS 13 & 14
* A Note from Petra: The war of the worlds was published long before radios and televisions. However, as a tribute to the radio drama broadcast in 1938, I have used radio sounds to distinguish the direct newspaper quotes from other narrative. Additionally, the action in this episode begins to ramp up, so we may veer from the "sleep stories" vibe. Headphones are recommended. I hope you enjoy!
