War of the Worlds 1938

Has anyone ever written a story where Martians really did land on Halloween eve 1938? What if Orson Wells was actually reporting real events and it was covered up afterward as a hoax in order to cover up the Martian victory?

I thought of writing this on the bus this morning. I hesitate to write such a story since it appears to be so obvious. I wonder how many times this story has been written?

  1. I think that was the premise behind the television series….

    interesting cycle with that story: 1898 (novel), 1938 (radio play), 1978 (album), 2018…. does ignore the first movie, but still – conspiracy enthusiasts check it out!
