Lights Out was a very popular old-time radio program in the United States. It was an early example of a network series devoted primarily to horror and the supernatural, before both Suspense and Inner Sanctum. From January 1934 to the summer of1947, numerous versions of Lights Out aired on different networks, and the series eventually migrated to television. In 1946, NBC Television introduced Lights Out to television with a series of four live-broadcast specials produced by Fred Coe, who also wrote three of the scripts. Cooper was commissioned by NBC to pen the script for the premiere, "First Person Singular," which is narrated solely from the perspective of an unseen murderer who murders his annoying wife and is ultimately executed. Lights Out did not become a regular NBC-TV series until1949, despite receiving a raving review from Variety for its pilot episode ("unquestionably one of the best dramatic television shows to date").
