Reading a Surprise Weird Tale: People vs. Bland, by Theodore Snow Wood

Flipping through Weird Tales, I found this story with a disarmingly simple style and a very solid pace. There are a lot of stories in WT that really don't seem to belong there, but this one surprised me with a neat little twist that I thought was handled subtly enough that I didn't see it coming on my first read. 

You'll probably catch it because I warned you, but it was a good story nonetheless.

So, I decided to do a reading of it, since it was pretty short. Enjoy!

Oh, by the way, I didn't try to do "voices" for this one but I probably should have. Hindsight is 20/20, I guess. Maybe next time.

If you'd rather read it at your own pace, you can do so on Internet Archive or Wikisource.
