Today's I'm featuring the Lights Out episode "Valse Triste" from December 29, 1942. This is a story about chance - about 50/50 odds and just how badly they can pan out. The plot concerns two women who are lost in the woods. They meet a recluse who is on the hunt for a bride and wants one of them to fit that part; but first, one of them must kill the other. It's a harsh story - cruel even - but certainly in the best tradition of radio horror and very much an Arch Oboler triumph.
