UtLS4E8: If It’s True, It’s Horrific

Under the Library - A Call of Cthulhu Podcast

On this episode of Under the Library:

In the clinic, Collette decides to trust Dr. Gardener and shares her real story. Buddy, in the waiting room, overhears pieces of the conversation while fidgeting with an unopened letter in his pocket. Collette faints as the doctor draws blood, and Ellen helps her back to the lobby to await results. Collette isn't sure how to feel when the results of her tests come back 100% normal.

On the other end of town Sam is at home, handing Cheryl a pamphlet about New Bloodstone. Cheryl strikes a match to light a cigarette and the sulfurous smell sends Sam into a horrific vision melding elements of his past and present into a hellish nightmare. Cheryl shakes Sam awake, asking "So are we going to New Bloodstone?"

------------------------

Under the Library, an actual-play Call of Cthulhu podcast, where cosmic horror is steeped in mystery and slathered with self-deprecating humor. Our main storyline, a sandbox created by our Keeper (Michael), is set in (a fictitious) 1942 New Mexico and follows the misadventures of Collette (Emily), Eddy (Scott), Sam (Rick), Sister B (Wayne), and Buddy (Arthur). We focus on narrative, improv, and character building. We may stick our heads in front of a train because that’s what our character would do, and when we look under the bed even the Keeper may not know what we’ll find. We’re crafting a story, creating flawed characters, suspenseful events, and fulfilling revelations. Call of Cthulhu is a horror TTRPG; characters die horribly graphic deaths. It’s for mature audiences, but played by immature people.
