Call of Cthulhu in modern day Colorado
“Sasquatch, werewolves, or Indian demons? The explanations may vary, but the facts are the same: Throats ripped out; bodies eviscerated. Something is killing people in Colorado, and we intend to find out who. Tune in next week to watch as our special investigator Kat Shires gets the goods on the ghouls in the ghost town.
“Until then, this is David Bartleby signing off for Phenomen-X. May the Force be with you!”
The announcer looked down and arranged papers on his desk as the credits rolled. After thirty seconds the floor manager gave the all clear sign and the red “On Air” lights around the studio winked out one by one.
“David! What the hell was that crack about the Force?” Bill Matthews stamped out into the studio floor and stood in front of the news desk with his hands on his hips. Bartleby was pulling his collar open and trying to light a cigarette at the same time. He managed to smear his pancake makeup in the attempt, looking pathetic and old in the green cast of the fluorescents that came on as the crew turned of the filming lights. “Don’t forget who our demographic is, man. If they think we’re making fun of them, we’ll all be out of business.”
“Screw the stupid jerks!” rasped Bartleby, blowing a plume of gray smoke into the air. “And why the hell wasn’t I given that assignment in Colorado? Shires is a cheap little whore, not a reporter. I should have got that assignment.”
“You’re a washed up drunk, Bartleby. You’re lucky your voice has held out this long. Keep on smoking those damned things and she’ll have your job in here too. She’s just what those twenty somethings want: A hot babe with a good delivery."
Join the fun. We're just getting started on a modern day Call of Cthulhu adventure set in the mountains of western Colorado. We still need our on-screen talent, male or female, and a video producer to hold the team together.
