The Last Letter of Dr. Bronson: A Deadly Experiment in Human Nature

from Suspense - Radio’s Outstanding Theater of Thrills · host OTR.FM Network

Originally Aired: August 15, 1946 In Suspense #206, “The Last Letter of Dr. Bronson,” a brilliant but disturbed psychiatrist turns himself into the subject of a macabre psychological experiment. Determined to prove that mankind refrains from murder due to five key internal checks, Dr. Bronson tempts five carefully chosen individuals with a chance to kill him for profit. But as the clock ticks toward midnight, and his would-be executioner awaits, Bronson discovers that some minds are beyond understanding—and some games should never be played. A chilling descent into the psychology of murder and madness, told entirely through a final, haunting letter.
