Show Notes

As the last bit of our month-long encouragement to check out our Patreon, we present this adaptation of Ray Bradbury’s “The Crowd” presented by Suspense! For our Patreon supporters, it’s a timely accompaniment to our next Mysterious Old Book Club, featuring an online group discussion of Bradbury’s Something Wicked This Way Comes! This adaptation features Dana Andrews as a police lieutenant hunting for a murderer who has a knack for creating a public spectacle! What compels this killer to draw so much attention to himself? Will he ever make a mistake? Do we have a weird, morbid fascination with people’s weird, morbid fascination? Listen for yourself and find out!
