The Freak Show

Image
10am Friday, July 18, 1924 : Peter Grave’s grandmother called from her home in Bolton, “Dear boy, I hope it’s not asking too much, but I have a new friend that needs your help. Her baby has been kidnapped. I’d rather not discuss this over the phone… extra ears you know.” In the background of the party-line, Peter heard the muffled “Harrumph” of the displeased neighbor Agnes, “Harold, it’s Bessie again, making up excuses for her boy to visit.”   Jimmy (aka Lance Bass) Hoplomania: unhealthy obsession with firearms. Bibliokleptomania: compulsion to take books. His habit more for keeping them off the streets. Peter Pseudomania: compulsion to lie. Apotemnophobia: fear of people with amputations. Essie Basophobia: fear of falling. Geliomania- compulsion to laugh. Riche Hypnophobia: fear of sleep or being hypnotized. Eisoptrophobia: fear of mirrors.   Arkham : It was a slow day for Essie, who wrapped up her cataloging at the Historical Society to join Peter....

Crack’d and Crook’d Manse.P2 Conclusion

Image
Crack’d and Crook’d Manse.P2 (Essie, Peter, Jimmy, Richie) Saturday noon, April 4th, 1924 : Jimmy had just fired his flaregun which caused the Pseudopod to exit back up the fireplace flue. “What the hell was that?!” As they gathered their senses, Essie caught sight of the saltshaker under the sitting chair inside the room.

[ Sanity check: 1/2 ] As they pondered what next, they jumped at the sight of ripples along the wall: to imply the creature moved within the walls. “No wonder the wallpaper cracked and moisture everywhere. It’s like a slim trail.” Apprehensive, Jimmy reentered the Den to gather the shotgun and emptied shells. That’s when he saw the cannister labeled “Salt”. He quickly began loading the empty shells with gun-powder and salt (2 minutes per shell as a delicate operation). Peter stood guard in the hallway door to the...

Andrew Keetling is Missing.P4 Conclusion

Image
Jimmy (Graham), Peter (Jordan), Essie (Whitney), Riche (Jon) 1pm, Friday, 19 Sept : The Garsetti house was in flames behind them as they stood in the driveway. Jimmy had just dumped the mobster’s body in the well, “To keep old Mrs. Jane Garsetti company. But these notes in his pockets point to Zeek behind everything.” Riche sat in the backseat with the broken Andrew rescued from Josephine’s cultist grasp, "We can face Zeek later. Right now, we need to get Andrew to a doctor!" Peter was weak from the spell attack by Josephine who had drained his constitution. He was still reeling from the vision of the Dweller in the Void in that upstairs bedroom. At least he (12) and Riche (11) still had their Flesh Ward armor that was useless against the witch’s spells. Essie was troubled by her hopeless feeling during the encounter: unable to give aid to Peter’s injuries while unable to assist in Josephine’s demise. She had convinced herself (rightly) that if Riche’s blade was ineffe...
