Quiet, Please was a radio fantasy and horror program that captivated audiences with its engaging storytelling style and diverse range of topics, such as romance, science fiction, crime, and even humor. Created by Wyllis Cooper, the show's episodes focused on first-person narration, immersing listeners into a captivating world of suspense and intrigue. The program featured Ernest Chappell as the lead actor and announcer, who took on various roles including that of an oil platform worker, mountain climber, or soldier, with the show distinguishing itself through a skillful use of silence and a simplistic production style that relied primarily on the organ for its musical score.

The radio show was first broadcast on June 8, 1947, on the Mutual Broadcasting System, and aired its final episode on June 25, 1949, on ABC. Out of a total of 106 episodes, only a few were repeats, and it received little notice during its initial run. Despite this, Quiet, Please has since received considerable acclaim as an outstanding example of American radio drama from the golden age. Among the show's dedicated fans is writer Harlan Ellison, who praised the series for its innovative storytelling style and the terrifying effect of Chappell's softly spoken narration.
