The Lets Read Podcast · 364: I'M NEVER HIKING ALONE AGAIN | 6 TERRIFYING True Scary Stories | EP 349 · 15 Sep 2026 podcast

You'd hear about him roasting birds or rabbits over there in the forest, but I only ever saw him eating from cans.

And when I did, I saw him scoop a little of whatever was out of his can and then he backed off and waited until a bird flew down and started pecking at it.

Now he didn't start eating until the bird flew down, and he sat there chomping with his big old smile on his face and laughing to himself all softly every so often.

At the time I thought it was the coolest thing I'd ever seen.

Like cornbread was more in tune with nature than the rest of us.

And I guess that was true in a lot of ways.

I was just too young to realize the downsides of living that kind of life.

I remember one time we saw cone bread as we were walking through the woods and we said

Hey there, mister.

How's it going?

Combrad looks around and sees us then waves back saying, Hey kids

But then he had us in stitches by turning to all the trees around him too, saying, Hello tree.

Hello tree

Hello Tree.

He acted kind of silly like that sometimes, but he wasn't just acting up to keep us entertained either.

Some of my mom's friends said that he'd been famous for having long conversations with trees for quite a while and that sometimes he'd sing them lullabies at night.

And while that sounds kind of wholesome, people said it scared the ever living crap out of them when they heard it floating through the darkness on the trails at night.

Now he also liked to refer to himself as we, and while as kids we just thought that was funny, the grown up me looks back on that thinking, damn, he really was crazy, huh?

Now other examples of cornbread's weird behavior was how sometimes, if you were walking through the woods, you'd see the little homes Cornbread had built for animals.

Now, they were teepee shaped homes made of sticks of varying sizes and were bound by whatever cord he had around at the time.
