It was on October 30, 1938 when broadcaster and screenwriter Orson Welles (later a film director) aired a radio episode of ""The War of the Worlds"" based on the work of the same name by writer H.G. Wells. The narrative form that Welles used to tell the story was so innovative and convincing that an entire population believed that an extraterrestrial invasion was actually taking place, which led to mass panic and chaos.
