The Strange Dr. Weird was a horror and mysterious melodrama radio program featuring Maurice Tarplin as the narrator, who also lent his creepy voice to the more famous series, The Mysterious Traveler. With its spooky organ music and macabre themes, the show focused on supernatural tales, bits of gore, and innuendos of dread, all backed by an eerie atmosphere. Tarplin's performance as the titular character was reminiscent of the fine actor Boris Karloff, and Tarplin's famous introduction and closing lines captured the chilling essence of the show, inviting listeners to come in and explore the frightful stories that awaited inside Dr. Weird's house on the other side of the cemetery.

The Strange Dr. Weird aired on the Mutual radio network from 1944 to 1945, consisting of 29 episodes produced and directed by Jock MacGregor and written by Robert A. Arthur, who also scripted for The Mysterious Traveler. The series was sponsored by Adam Hats and many of the scripts were condensed 15-minute versions of those originally broadcast on The Mysterious Traveler. Maurice Tarplin, known for his killer puns, was inspired from his previous work on The Mysterious Traveler, while Mutual regulars showcased their acting skills in chilling, suspenseful episodes. The series remains an iconic part of the golden age of radio and stands as a testament to the enduring popularity of the horror genre.
