🐙✨ The Stars Are Right! ✨🐙

We’ve started our much anticipated Call of Cthulhu campaign based on Berlin the Wicked City by David Larkins, with Mike Mason and Lynn Hardy! Join us for our latest audio adventure - and if you haven’t listened before, this is the perfect time to start!

Episode 1 is out now! Listen on our website, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and more! 🎧

Follow a non-binary Cabaret owner, a troubled drug dealer, a flamboyant pianist and an ex-prostitute with a penchant for the occult through a series of dark tales. 🔮
"In the aftermath of the Great War, Berlin has a reputation for licentiousness. A place where anything may be had for the right price. It is both a city of hedonism and a city of business. Long into the evenings, Berlin’s world-famous cabarets offer music, dance, and titillating entertainment in stark contrast to the grey buildings that run on for endless miles along the sprawling city’s byways." ✨

Stars Are Right: bringing Call of Cthulhu stories to life. Actual-play podcast and scenario publishing for the Call of Cthulhu tabletop RPG.
