The Call of Cthulhu Mystery Program is live tabletop roleplaying turned into a 1930s radio serial. Before you dive into the insanity of improvised audio drama horror, meet the crew and learn a little bit about how the Call of Cthulhu system works.
Join producer and performer, Cat Blackard for a discussion about bringing the show back, Keeper Luke Stram shares how Call of Cthulhu 7th Edition has changed the game and how we play it, and get to know this season’s Investigators: Ghostbusters: Resurrection‘s Josh LaForge and Nerdy Show‘s boR, Nicky Holland, and Omniverse development producer John Sebastian LaValle.
Here you’ll find them all so young, naïve, and full of weapons-grade jerky. These poor fools have no idea what horrendous, sanity-rending torment they’re about to endure in this all new tale… “The Terrible Secret of Lot X”.

Wealthy occultist, Estelle Thorpe's latest auction win is an unusual one to say the least: a collection of sordid sundries that could unlock great secrets... or a Pandora's Box of horror. To solve the paranormal mysteries she's uncovered, Ms. Thorpe has assembled an unlikely crew of curiosity-seekers: Moses; mountain man turned renowned novelist, Cherry; a floozie who's more than she seems, Oswald; a hobo king, Estelle's cunning assistant Anjana, and Kenneth; a notorious gambler.
Will they be able to glean answers from the shadows looming over New England or will they succumb to the maddening call of the Terrible Secret of Lot X?

Housed within the hallowed halls of the Miskatonic University library is one of the few known copies of The Necronomicon - a tome of the unknown - of death, and power. Seekers of arcane knowledge are drawn to it. So it should be no surprise that Estelle Thorpe’s path has led her here.
While half of the troupe journey to the wilds of Essex, Ms. Thorpe is accompanied by gambler, Kenneth Roger, and good time girl, Cherry Featherbottom, to consult the impossibly rare book. A book which the late Charles Pell, presumed dead peddler of obscurities, had hoped to reference in his nefarious dealings.

The theatre is a magical place. A place where fact becomes fiction, fantasy becomes flesh… the human experience is laid bare! Fitting then that Boston’s Monarch Theater should be the site of a horrendous ritual that also happens to be a stage play... a diabolical work called The King in Yellow.
If performed, it wouldn't just be the dénouement for our heroes, but perhaps the world as we know it.

Though the conspirators are gone - the madness unleashed lives on! The veil between our world and… another place are thin and the vile, theatrical ritual to summon The King in Yellow persists. Do our inexperienced investigators stand a chance in hell of repelling the walking, waking nightmare to come, or will they give in to the delirium and gibbering inflicted upon those who have truly seen the unseen?
One way or another, this episode is really gonna bring the house down.

Mystery Program showrunner, Cat Blackard, and Keeper, Luke Stram, interview Chris Spivey of Darker Hue Studios, author of the award-winning Call of Cthulhu sourcebook, Harlem Unbound.
Harlem Unbound dynamically explores the real world history, personalities, social intricacies, and Lovecraftian mythos in 1920s New York City and Harlem; while confronting racism in that time period and as a part of the roleplaying experience. We speak with Chris about the challenges of bringing this project to life, the brand-new Second Edition from Chaosium, how to thoughtfully and safely explore racism in RPGs, and get juicy details on the jaw-droppingly expansive scope of his next major project, Haunted West.

The denizens of Big Momma’s boarding house were shaken from their sleep by a shrill scream and ghastly news! A police officer came a-calling with questions about their housemate, Hannah Pickering, who had been found dead. But it wasn't Hannah's scream they heard - that was their kindly landlord being savagely attacked by fellow tenant, Father Grandfather. The elderly bible salesman was taken into custody for his assault; yet shockingly this lunatic appears to not have been the murderer.
Now, as the sun rises over Arkham, light is cast on the sinister leavings of the cruel night. These five unlikely companions find themselves faced with a mystery and a benefactor that can make it worth their while to solve it.

Following the mysterious murder of Hannah Pickering, her housemates have been conscripted by Arkham Police Detective Hardin to see if they can discover any leads.
Ex-Federal Agent Sam Spade heads the novice task force and together they travel to the site of Miss Pickering’s murder – a rural roadside near the city dump, where, not twelve hours prior, the discovery of her desecrated body shook a young police officer to his very core. Meanwhile, the crazed Bible salesman, Father Grandfather, has run off to conduct his own investigation and prove his mad theory… that it was a demon who struck the poor girl down.

Nice call of cathulu podcast, it was good.
So bloody goood
Starting to feel anxious about the deep hole I know the end of this feed is going to leave in me 😭 Such a great show. Awesome cast. Great content. Wish I had found this sooner and can't wait to find more by them. May have to choose supporting them over groceries for a few weeks, the extra content would sustain me😅 Highly recommend, whether your into table top games or know nothing about them!
anyone who hasnt checked it out yet, lot x is pretty good. all of their productions are very entertaining.
That Rambling Randolph cover of Carpet Crawlers by Genesis is awesome. I'd love to know the name of the woman doing backup vocals
heavy misophonia warning halfway through, chip crunching sounds.
my favorite kind of jam, people jam
where you guys at? love your show!
oh geez, this episode was very tactile for me for some reason. perhaps the wood plank noises and whatnot, very creepy! can't wait for the next one!!
The background sfx is a little to loud and makes it hard to fully hear the episode
someone please kill off the bible salesman
