Spooky Sagas
The rip-roaring conclusion to this recent adventure sees Doctor Satan delving into the art of necromancy on top of his static electricity research, Ascott Keane stoically neglect to name his scientist friend, and David, Allen and Abysmii keep at the nonsense jokes that basically write themselves.

Though we accidentally begin the fourth Doctor Satan story instead of the second, it does little to throw David, Allen and Abysmii off of the tropes that have already been established. The (good) doctor seems to be targeting fancy car manufacturers, but what does this next diabolical scheme entail? Is Doctor Satan actually the real inventor of the flux capacitor? And will Ascott Keane drag his long self out to confront his nemesis once again?

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.

A pulp-infused saga unfolds as Abysmii shares a public domain discovery with David, Kaela and Allen. Straight form the pages of Weird Tales, the gang are introduced to the baffling crimes of the eponymous Devil-themed ne’er-do-well, and meet his arch-nemesis, the logical longboy Ascott Keane. Who will win? Who will lose? How many women will faint over the course of these stories? UCA is on the case!

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?

What dry horrors await our readers in this installment? Be prepared for more gripping details of petty gossip among rich old people, long-winded discussions about etymology, and our protagonist apparently manifesting future vision out of nowhere. Also, mongoose.

Themed drinks and sleep deprivation arrive for this second installment, where the Creative Horror gang have to contend with geology, snakes and a sudden, cringe-inducing reminder that racist caricatures existed in novels like this.

A new spooky saga begins! Kaela has enlisted the Creative Horror crew to read an infamously maligned horror novel by none other than the writer of Dracula, just to prove that even the most well-known authors can produce duds. The gang is about to find out why, and start plotting how they might drink their way through it in a creative way.
