Broadcast History: 21 May 1931 to 13 June 1938

Adelaide Fitz-Allen was the main cast member from 1931 until she passed away in February 1935 of Bronchial Pneumonia (she was 75). After that there was a talent search that was unrivalled until David Selznick started searching for a Scarlett O'Hara. The actress whose eerie voice finally landed her the job of portraying Nancy, the Witch of Salem was then twelve year old Miriam Wolfe, who at the time could be heard on the juvenile fairy-story show "Let's Pretend".
