Weird Tales March 1928 — 'The Strange People' by Murray Leinster Cover
An old man with a silver beard leans through a window, dagger clutched in his hand, eyes locked with murderous intent on an embracing couple who remain oblivious to the threat closing in behind them. The woman, dark-haired and draped in flowing amber and green, gazes up at her companion with total vulnerability. The intruder's knife and the rope coiled nearby signal something sinister and premeditated — a jealous rage or something far stranger lurking beneath the surface of this pulp melodrama.
Oh man, this one's got EVERYTHING — a knife-wielding creeper, a swooning beauty, a clueless hero, and Robert E. Howard on the contributor list! Classic Weird Tales melodrama at its finest, dripping with menace and romantic peril in equal measure.
