Welcome to Night Vale

So... anyone else here listen to this?

 

To those of you who have never heard of it, dudes. Stop right now. Go listen to it. You can thank me later.

 

...What? You still need convincing? Fine.

 

Welcome to Night Vale is an audio drama series available on Youtube; it presents the story of a town in the middle of a desert told by the host of the local radio station; all the usual kind of small-town stuff, like the local football matches, the upcoming backsales, the blood stone circles, the Vague-Yet-Menacing Government conspiracy you know, that kind of thing.

 

There is, very much, a Gravity Fall's tone to the whole thing... or, rather, Gravity Fall's has a Night Vale-ian tone to it, since (I'm pretty sure) Night Vale came first.  There's also something of a Twin Peak's-vibe to the whole thing in my opinion, particularly in the early episodes (which lean a little more towards horror).

 

In case it's not obvious? I'm a big fan of it. So I'm curious if anyone else here is, too.

That show is my jam. I've been a fan for... hmm... I wanna say three, four years? I've been to a live show, I have T-shirts, I've downloaded every special episode up to and including their crossover with another fav podcast of mine (The Thrilling Adventure Hour)... 

Love it. Love it to bits.

If I were to meet Cecil Baldwin I think I'd hug him and never let go.

Heh, he's already taken by a certain handsome Latino scientist-

... And before you'd try to hug Cecil, keep in mind the many, many, maaaany scattered hints throughout the show he's... not what he seems. There is, in fact, evidence the man might be as eldritch a horror as just about anything else in town.

I meant the actual man, Cecil Baldwin, not Cecil Gershwin Palmer.

Name a favourite side character!

Hiram McDaniels, Tamika or Kevin come to mind.

He's not just my favorite side character, but one of my favorite characters overall. One who understands the world perfectly, is treated like the Cassandra for it, and keeps going in the hope that someone will see the truth….I love him so much.
