Beyond Midnight was a South African radio horror anthology series that ran from 1968 to 1970 on Springbok Radio. The program "was a replacement series for SF'68. Michael McCabe served as producer, and adapted stories for both series'. Unlike its sci-fi predecessor, Beyond Midnight served up stories with a supernatural bent."[1]
