The Gothic Podcast

It's Halloween! That means it's time for The Gothic Podcast Halloween Special 2021! Join us as we play through a session of the 'roleplaying game of tragic horror, Ten Candles, in a kernel of terror we call "The Corn Maze Massacre!"

Tonight, our fun-loving sorority and fraternity sisters and brothers head over to Sauvie Island to have a mixer in the 'world's largest corn maze'. But things soon turn deadly ... and the candles begin to go out.

The Gothic Podcast is an actual-play horror-and-humor audio drama recorded from our cobbled together studios in Portland, OR and around the globe.

For this Halloween special, we play Ten Candles, by Stephen Dewey, published by Cavalry Games. You can find us on Podbean at Gothicpodcast.com and on all sorts of social media:
