Each week, a group of storytellers gathers around a campfire. There's world-weary club MC Edgar Allan Poe, nerd dad Stephen King, violent goth Mary Shelley, squid-obsessed wimp HP Lovecraft, and others. They like different things, they come from different centuries, but one thing draws them together—the dark. A comedy-horror semi-anthology adapted from Bitter Karella's Hugo-nominated microfiction.
