Matt Holley
The thrilling conclusion of the first Doctor Satan story finds our erstwhile hero, Ascott Keane, meeting his arch-nemesis face-to-mask. David, Kaela, Allen and Abysmii are joined by Mastt Holley this time as they explore such uncanny powers as magical trash cans, blind noclipping through the city, and T-posing to call on the power of God and anime.
Story by Paul Ernst, first published in Weird Tales, August 1935.
A four-podcast mashup! The creators of Darkly Lit, Undercooked Analysis, The Jaymeson Tapes and Coffee & Pie all gather in one place to have some goofy discussions! Follow along as these weirdos tangent back and forth with some quality(?) conversation.
In this experimental episode, the gang record outdoors on a patio after helping David and Kaela move to a new home. Abysmii, Papreeka and Matt join them as they are reminded how this section has been well and thoroughly supplanted by the great enigma of shortstory1.
“I accidentally married everyone in my village” can be read here.
”How to uncook something” can be read here.
This segment has entirely been hijacked by shortstory1 at this point. David, Kaela and Matt get AJ and Gwen to return and see how far the weirdness has gone and what tropes continue.
Stories submitted by shortstory1 Read along below:
1. “Something keeps multiplying inside my apartment”
2. “If you are 30 years old and have a car, job and a house then you are a failure”
3. “I'm just trying to bury my father but drivers keep honking their horn”
4. “I want my room to be red”
5. “I was supposed to be maliciously compliant with my neighbours but it failed”
The whole gang (plus Matt) get together, get drunk, and get properly fed up with this story. They can only handle so much verbose, empty dialogue and passing references to way more interesting details that should have been shown, not told through the narrative. But is this truly the end?

Losses aside, David and Kaela set up to play this unusual game with Matt Holley, and Eli and Kylie from Cinema Nippon/Animal Fact Files. Then they decide against it once they find out what the rules are, that the prize is definitely not worth it, and that it might be more worthwhile to do an ASMR episode of this podcast someday instead.

Closing out their performance at Midsummer Scream, the Creative Horror gang reads a couple of stories blind, one of which would go on to be a proper episode you no doubt heard.
For the Part 1 of this panel, listen to Midnight Marinara here.
Performed July 28th, 2018 at the Long Beach Convention Center, featuring David King, Kaela Berry, Allen Chaney, Jesse "Seid," Reyes, Abysmii, Papreeka and Matt Holley. Video recording by Lisa Tom. Special thanks to Zack Sokol and Ben Dickow.
David and Matt are stuck in NoSleep this week, but are sent a Patron's Poison to ease things along. With a promising premise right from the outset and storytelling style that seems to work with the NoSleep mold, will this story come out of the bathroom smelling fresh as a daisy, or is it better to flush it away?
"'I've been trying to leave my bathroom for the past 30 minutes" is credited to v0ids. Read along here
Our 13th episode in the new run (and 195th episode overall) features the Creative Horror Crew all together in the aftermath of Midsummer Scream, reading a story they started to cover at the Midnight Marinara panel the day before! David, Kaela, Allen, Seid, Abysmii, Papreeka and Matt Holley (with special guest appearances by Gracey) wonder: is this verbose tale of a creepy cookbook worth the effort to finish?
