I returned to the archives today to find the device had been tampered with in the middle of night. The disembodied spirit of professor Zlotty could be heard whimpering in the humidor, making strange sucky noises between his sobbing, as though he was trying to remove imaginary bisque from thin air. The Dunwich Horror came huffing home in the early morning, rain-drenched and clutching in his indescribable appendages a crudely-drawn map, apparently leading to non-existent dumpsters at the city’s edge. Ms. Teahymn absorbed in a Chinese puzzle box of some sort… the sort which is not a puzzle box at all, but a fancy block of solid and non-moving wood made to look like a puzzle box. Really, I have no idea what must have gotten into the water around here – especially since really, none of them drink water at all, but somehow the device was tuned to a rather interesting new find when I arrived. I found there on the crystal screen, some amazing footage captured by some rather adventurous cinematographers. I do […]

You thought ultra-violet was invisible?
“We shall see that at which dogs howl in the dark, and that at which cats prick up their ears after midnight. We shall see these things, and other things which no breathing creature has yet seen. We shall overleap time, space, and dimensions, and without bodily motion peer to the bottom of creation!” Slow or dormant pineal gland? Unable to see Ultraviolet? Ever wonder what is out there in the ether swimming about your head, crawling on your dinner plate?

Hexed
Last night I entered the Miskatonic Archives, and through slight of hand and nimble footing I made it into the professor’s office and lab. I found no sign of the Necronomicon, nor could I find any of those books that were acquired by the University through the Dunwich incident. I did however manage to pilfer an impression of Professor Kemy’s scribblings from from a desktop notepad, though nothing as of yet makes much sense at all… But none of what I found has much to do with my current situation, which I will relay to you now, in case these moments are to be my very last… Though I had been quite sly and meticulously nimble in my excursion, I neglected to return with my bag… a bag containing a change of clothing, so that I could arrive at the Women’s Cello Society recital well-dressed and in good time for some celebratory drinking. When I realized this, I was halfway between the University and my intended destination – and, my apartment on Rue d’Auseil being closer, I decided to grab a change of […]
A terrible ruse
Today, I came across a rather strange assortment of artifacts, piled loosely in a duffel bag in the corner of my office. The duffel bag bore no distinguishing marks other than a sticker reading “Abney Park”, what I believe to be a stamp from a possible stop along the way from its unknown origin. Having worked tirelessly throughout the day to ascertain their origin, I found about midway through spectographics and other means, that these items were by no means ancient, or even old. However, knowing that there exist modern-times dabblers and adepts in the metaphysical arts and aether-scientific spheres, I decided it would be a good idea to inspect these items more closely. The first of these items – what seemed to be a pair of flight goggles, with a crudely fashioned set of secondary lenses bound by brass arms, which for some reason did not seem to bend or swing in ways that would be expected for functionality, or even bend at all. In trying to manipulate the lenses, I eventually broke one of these […]
