At the very start of the radio drama, Orson Welles had repeatedly said that the said drama is a science fiction. The sci-fi radio drama was said to cause mass panic because of its realistic script. Orson Welles also believed there might have been a small percentage of the population that was panicking. It was also stated in New York Times, that people were in a mass panic because of the drama itself. However, C. E Hopper had proven that no such thing had happened.
