Come Away Death

Rich and dying Simon Brokar lives in a dark old house with his young girlfriend Bunny and his niece Nita, who don't trust Bunny's reasons for being there. When Simon meets Mr. Morris, who is actually Death in human form, they trade places with each other. But when life and death get mixed up and out of control, Simon has to give up his own life to make things right again.

CBS Radio Mystery Theater is a radio drama series created by Himan Brown that was broadcast on CBS Radio Network affiliates from 1974 to 1982, and later in the early 2000s was repeated by the NPR satellite feed. In New York City it was not aired by the then all-news WCBS but by its originating station, WOR, which produced and announced it as simply Radio Mystery Theater.
