On this episode of Under the Library, a Call of Cthulhu Podcast:

Sam is between two train cars, examining the coupling mechanism, when he sees men carrying a wrapped body. He follows them into the prep car to find Johnny securing the body and giving orders to carefully clean the blood at the crime scene.

Sister B is still clinging to the top of another train, passing through town after town without pause. She makes her way to the next car, forces the hatch open, and peers down. Inside, she sees a veritable army of strange humanoid figures, not statues, but instead jiggling with the movement of the train.

Back on the passenger train Colette continues to tell Amanda about Eddy’s death, but she becomes suspicious of Amanda’s interest and frantic note taking. Colette challenges her and Amanda admits that her official research area is beauty pageants, but her true obsession is investigating strange events. They hear a knock on the door, and agent Johnny Daunte enters the room.

In the rear compartment, the mysterious book speaks to Buddy, imploring him to read it. At first he remains silent, but he’s eventually drawn into conversation when the book shares impossible knowledge of his father and also claims that it knows what killed Eddy.

Finally, Sam, now in the supply car, grabs a couple of handles of whiskey and heads back to the dining car.

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.
