UtLS4E18: We Got Tourist Trapped

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

The passenger train arrives in New Bloodstone and stagecoaches are on site to transport everyone into town. The staff of the local hotel, Bawdy Bill’s, welcome their new guests, and then everyone splits off in different directions. Sam, Amos, and Johnny go in search of period clothing as Colette finds information on sightseeing and Buddy researches Old Bloodstone.

On another train, Sister B flees through the top hatch of the car and leaps from the slowly moving train, the contents of her suitcase scattering as she tumbles. She’s trapped in a fenced facility, and as a man approaches in military uniform she fires on him. Bullets fly as Sister B is embroiled in a gunfight with unidentified military forces.

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. Find us at https://underthelibrary.com.
