The REDACTED Reports

Season 10 Teaser - Pretty Much the Same

Wed, 01 Apr 2026 00:00:00 -0700

That was weirdly public...I would have expected a dead drop or something?

Interludes 9.5

Wed, 31 Dec 2025 00:00:00 -0700

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Interludes 9

Wed, 24 Dec 2025 00:00:00 -0700

Time might heal all wounds, but that doesn't mean it won't leave a few scars behind too.

Horae Episode 12 - Make Peace

Wed, 17 Dec 2025 00:00:00 -0700

Sometimes, usually, there is no perfect ending in this kind of work. There is only hoping the right sacrifices were made, and that the light shines a little longer because of it.

Horae Episode 11 - Silence

Wed, 10 Dec 2025 00:00:00 -0700

Reuniting the team might mean opening doors that were better left closed, both literally and metaphysically. Still, when one of the agents has always been a little out of time, R Cell was going to have to face the risk sooner and later.

CW: Swarm/Bug sounds

Horae Episode 10 - Root

Wed, 03 Dec 2025 00:00:00 -0700

One team member missing, the rest scrambling through the chaos of the church, and there's no more time to wait and see what unfolds. All the members of R Cell are jumping into action to finally get some answers, but some of those answers might come with greater repercussions than anyone expected.

CW: Gunshots

Horae Episode 9 - Increase

Wed, 26 Nov 2025 00:00:00 -0700

The clock is ticking fast on this investigation. Regan and Ross unlocked some "hot goss," but Rowan and Reuben still have shivers down their spines, while River resists a revelation none of R Cell was ready for...

Horae Episode 8 - Join Her

Wed, 19 Nov 2025 00:00:00 -0700

The community outside Hourglass has been welcoming to the team...maybe too welcoming. Strange children, strange voices, and strange handshakes all suggest that there may be something deeply sinister brewing beneath the pleasant surface of this traditionalist mountain community. Can old friends and esoteric knowledge lead R Cell to some answers before they're in too deep?

Horae Episode 7 - Heat On

Wed, 12 Nov 2025 00:00:00 -0700

A train ride through the mountains should have been simple after the "minor excitement" of the night before, but the team is more on edge than ever. Multiple agents suddenly had concerned calls from family, and after one too many strange sightings on the train, R Cell has to worry. Could the local cult-church-community actually be linked to a previous investigation? Or have so many past missions finally caught up that R Cell is just the convergence?

Horae Episode 6 - Wood Man

Wed, 05 Nov 2025 00:00:00 -0700

Fast action means fast results as R Cell quickly mobilizes to asses a possible threat to the teen streamer behind the viral video, but the team should know by now that no action goes unnoticed. It seems the threat might be both real and more dangerous that anticipated, and the unexpected appearance of someone from the team's past suggests something more sinister could be at work in Hourglass.

Horae Episode 5 - Good Man

Wed, 29 Oct 2025 00:00:00 -0700

The split team has made some progress in getting a better picture of this strange local church community, even if cocktails and libraries were both involved. But just before they can start to really dig in to assess these findings, a worrying new video crosses their feeds that needs immediate action.

Horae Episode 4 - Hind

Wed, 22 Oct 2025 00:00:00 -0700

Hidden writing and disappearing books aren't a comforting start to the investigation, but at least the team has new leads to follow as they try to get back to the two most urgent questions: what happened to the woman in that viral video, and why do they need to get involved?

Horae Episode 3 - Hicks

Wed, 15 Oct 2025 00:00:00 -0700

The agents arrive in Hourglass, brimming with even more strange new concerns after their road-trip research. With so many possible leads to investigate, and still very little direction from above on what they're looking for, it's time to start asking questions.

Horae Episode 2 - Add Em

Wed, 08 Oct 2025 12:00:00 -0700

Snacks are packed, cell phones are charged, and it's time for a road trip! The agents are on their way to Oregon, hoping that some research along the way will simply lead them to misguided influencers before they have to deal with something more concerning.

Horae Episode 1 - Preamble

Wed, 08 Oct 2025 00:00:00 -0700

Even as things change, they remain the same. While day jobs shift in complex new ways, a concerning viral video demands the same attention that R Cell has always been asked for, and the agents must answer the call to investigate.

Season 9 Teaser - Debunking

The UNREDACTED Report - Season 8

Wed, 02 Apr 2025 00:00:00 -0700

On March 19th, 2025, the members of R Cell and their shadowy Handler beamed in remotely from their respective undisclosed locations to discuss the events and aftermath of Season 8, known as Operation Blue Blood. Guided by Agent Harker (Alandra Hileman) and with a strong assist from Agent Herald, they delved into their character arcs as agents, the challenges of splitting the party, and even did their colors. Come and join the conversation.

Interludes 8.5

Wed, 26 Feb 2025 00:00:00 -0700

It’s important not to get lost in the work, so between missions the agents make sure to forge new connections, hone new skills and…visit St. Joseph’s?

Interludes 8

Wed, 19 Feb 2025 00:00:00 -0700

Closing another case doesn’t guarantee closure for the team. Choices made, or avoided, can hang heavy over the agents, so the work they do after the reports are filed is sometimes just as important.

Blue Blood Episode 12 - Iatrogenesis

Wed, 05 Feb 2025 00:00:00 -0700

The immediate threat has been contained, but that doesn’t mean the mission is over. Someone else has been operating behind the scenes, and if there’s one thing R Cell isn’t good at, it’s letting things go.

Blue Blood Episode 11 - Ultraviolet Germicidal Irradiation

Wed, 29 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0700

Voices from the past converge on the present as both halves of R Cell finally come face to face with what they’ve been hunting. Lights blaze, gunshots ring, and the agents are ready to end this mission…even if it means not everyone gets out.

Sunlight is the best natural disinfectant, they say, and R Cell is certainly seeing what it can do. But when it comes to the Unnatural, even sunlight might not be enough to break through the shadows that are converging on this investigation.

Blue Blood Episode 6 - Ossification

Wed, 11 Dec 2024 00:00:00 -0700

The investigation is only getting more complicated, and more violent. Whatever is going on, someone or something wants to make sure no one gets any closer. Too bad that’s never stopped R Cell.

Blue Blood Episode 5 - Retained Foreign Object

Wed, 04 Dec 2024 00:00:00 -0700

No amount of preparation will help R Cell deal with force majeure, but that’s a complication that’s going to have to wait. The immediate problems require a different R Cell specialty: a trip to the morgue

Wed, 27 Nov 2024 00:00:00 -0700

When the physical trail cools off, the digital trail heats up. Every new bit of information is adding up to a deeply concerning possibility, and after everything they’ve seen before, R Cell isn’t about to slow down the hunt until they have more answers.

Content Warnings:

Blue Blood Episode 3 - Ornithosis

Wed, 20 Nov 2024 00:00:00 -0700

Strange animal activity seems to surround the crime scene radius, and the tracks that lead away suggest that something is on the move. Sometimes a classic door-to-door canvass is the fastest way to get answers, but it wouldn’t be an R Cell investigation if it didn’t raise more questions too.

(Additional music used: https://soundcloud.com/myuu/scent-of-night)

Blue Blood Episode 2 - Cyanosis

Wed, 13 Nov 2024 00:00:00 -0700

Two dead bodies, a secret biohazard lab, and a lot of unsettling goo welcome the agents to the PNW. Preliminary investigations aren’t any more reassuring, as R cell begins to construct an unsettling narrative of what may have taken place…and uncover a small but concerning link to a previous investigation.

Blue Blood Episode 1 - SOAP Notes

Wed, 06 Nov 2024 00:00:00 -0700

Cowboys are known to head in guns ablazin’, but R Cell is more research than rancheros these days. Still, it’s unnerving when a certain group chat alerts the team to a new mission before the official call comes in. Time to saddle up and see what mysteries await in the Pacific Northwest.

Operation Fruit Fly - Part 2

Wed, 28 Aug 2024 00:00:00 -0700

Utah, 1992. The agents are racing the clock to contain the aftermath of the mystery aircraft that was downed by the U.S. Air Force. But like any Delta Green mission, the task is rarely as straightforward as it seems it should be, and the minutes just keep ticking by…

Operation Fruit Fly - Part 1

Wed, 21 Aug 2024 00:00:00 -0700

Utah, 1992. A group of Delta Green agents has been handed an urgent assignment: to find and contain the crash site of a saucer-like aircraft, shot down by the U.S. Air Force. Time is of the essence, which means it’s time to deploy the best.

The UNREDACTED Report - Season 7

Wed, 05 Jun 2024 00:00:00 -0700

On May 29th, 2024, the members of R Cell and their shadowy Handler convened in a secret location to discuss the events and aftermath of Season 7, known as Operation Dramaturgy. Guided by Agent Harker (Alandra Hileman), they dove deep into the discussion surrounding the King in Yellow, Carcosa, and how the Agents handled the situations they were handed. Come and join the conversation.

The close of the curtain might transport an audience back to reality, but those behind the scenes know the play doesn’t end when the blackout is called. The work lights come on, and it’s time to mop up and reset for the next one.

(CW: Gunshot at 24:39, Drowning, Physical Injury)

The final act is fast approaching, but the agents are left without a full cast. As the clock counts down to the masquerade, R Cell races to find the rest of the missing actors…including one of their own.

Dramaturgy Episode 13 - Mezzanine

Wed, 17 Apr 2024 00:00:00 -0700

Halfway between worlds, the plot thickens. Most of the team confronts the idea that roles some agents are playing may go deeper than coincidence. And though one agent has found a way back out to their own world, getting back to the team to show them all the way is another matter…

Dramaturgy Episode 12 - Backstage Pass

Wed, 10 Apr 2024 00:00:00 -0700

(CW: Body Horror, Eyes, Misophonia at 29:50)

All dressed up, now to find someplace to go. The agents are starting to piece together the rules of this strange other-world, but that doesn’t mean they’ve played their full part yet. For that, they’ll have to go meet the director.

Dramaturgy Episode 11 - Supernumeraries

Wed, 03 Apr 2024 00:00:00 -0700

Access to the city was hard won, but the agents are finally inside and able to ask questions. However, a mythical city full of fictional characters is not the most reliable place to find information. Surrounded by cryptic answers, strange signs, and all this talk of masks, can the agents trust anything here - even themselves?

Dramaturgy Episode 10 - Mise en Scene

Wed, 27 Mar 2024 00:00:00 -0700

(CW: Trypophobia, Medical Horror, Teeth)

The body count is rising, and not in the fun way. But a mysterious city in a lost, or nonexistent, land seems to be the best lead the agents have to finally find out what happened to their missing persons. However, nothing is ever simple, and there’s still a toll to be paid…

Dramaturgy Episode 9 - Oleo Drop

Wed, 06 Mar 2024 00:00:00 -0700

Entering a mysterious trap door isn’t usually a great survival strategy, and the odds get worse when it’s hidden in a mausoleum. But investigating the lead often requires risks, and R Cell is used to making risky maneuvers…

Dramaturgy Episode 8 - Sleight of Hand

Wed, 28 Feb 2024 00:00:00 -0700

(CW: Sirens 8:02 - 8:19)

The queasy stomachs just add another layer to the rising discomfort R Cell has with each new bit of information they uncover. It seems one very specific version of this script will be the key to unlocking any more answers, a version no one has a copy of. But some of the agents know where they might find the key to their key…

Dramaturgy Episode 7 - Pepper's Ghost

Wed, 21 Feb 2024 00:00:00 -0700

A truce with the unknown is never easy, if that’s even what just happened? What R Cell does know is that getting access to the mausoleum is now crucial to their continued investigations. Unfortunately, dead men tell no tales…and turns out that isn’t limited to pop-culture pirates.

Dramaturgy Episode 6 - Soliloquy

Wed, 14 Feb 2024 00:00:00 -0700

It’s rare that R Cell has a subject matter expert to assist them, but as clues and “coinkydinks” pile up, maybe it’s never been more important. Lore and theory meet observation and reality head-to-head as the agents and the academic try to make sense out of what they’ve discovered, and make a plan for what they can do about it.

Dramaturgy Episode 5 - Callback

Wed, 07 Feb 2024 00:00:00 -0700

Past collides with the present as the investigation continues. A mysterious phone call leads Ross and Regan to someone with both a bizarre story connected to the theatre and an unexpected connection to a previous agent of R Cell. Meanwhile, River and Rowan try to connect the dots between three brothers who know too little of their own history, and too much of R Cell’s.

(Extra music used: https://soundcloud.com/myuu/scent-of-night)

Dramaturgy Episode 4 - Enter Stage Left

Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 -0700

Indie theatre has a certain reputation for unusual concepts, but last night’s show seemed weird even by those standards. Still, a new day dawns, and now R Cell finds themselves looking for information someplace even more unsettling than the theatre…a place they had hoped to never visit again, lest they find themselves never leaving.

Dramaturgy Episode 3 - Headliner

Wed, 24 Jan 2024 00:00:00 -0700

Compared to some investigations, R Cell has uncovered an unexpected wealth of information to add to the file. Though some of the team is still shaken from a glimpse of something they aren’t sure they were meant to see, there will certainly be time to ponder that after the comedy show. No late seating!

Dramaturgy Episode 2 - Scenic Elevation

Wed, 17 Jan 2024 00:00:00 -0700

Reading may be R Cell’s most dangerous pastime, but it can still only get them so far in an investigation before the boots (and Regan’s sensible heels) need to hit the pavement. River and Ross head out to investigate a theatre which may or may not exist, while Rowan and Regan follow up on the contacts of the play’s enigmatic missing director.

Dramaturgy Episode 1 - Dramatis Personae

Wed, 10 Jan 2024 00:00:00 -0700

A new year means a new mission, and this one is a far cry from R Cell’s usual fare. On the surface, a missing persons case hardly seems like it would be linked to the Unnatural, but the Agents know by now that anything can hide sinister supernatural secrets…even something as straightforward as a stage play.

Season 7 Teaser - Bad Information

Wed, 03 Jan 2024 00:00:00 -0700

This case is gonna be a little bit different for R Cell...this is a missing persons case...

Calling the King - Part 2

Sun, 24 Dec 2023 09:00:00 -0700

Superstitions are prevalent in the theatre community, but this is bizarre even amongst those who are accustomed to it. And as the actors get farther into the rehearsal process, they have to wonder: is just this a normal part of the theatrical weirdness, or is there something deeper and stranger at work in this production?

Calling the King - Part 1

Sun, 24 Dec 2023 08:00:00 -0700

Summer 2024, and whispers ripple through the San Francisco theatre scene. A visionary director has gathered a group of mostly-unknown actors, and rehearsals for yet another bold indie production begin.

The UNREDACTED Report - Season 6

Wed, 25 Oct 2023 00:00:00 -0700

On October 18th, 2023, the members of R Cell and their shadowy Handler convened in a secret location to discuss the events and aftermath of Season 6, known as Operation Kaleidoscope. Guided by Agent Harker (Alandra Hileman), they discussed the various things that happened throughout the season (yes, including THAT). Come and join the conversation, but beware the spoiler warnings.

Interludes 6

Wed, 04 Oct 2023 00:00:00 -0700

Knowing all the possible risks is not the same as understanding the consequences. R Cell has always known that someday this could be the outcome, and now they will have to understand what it means to go forward when it's happened. But first, a toast.

Following the individual strings has led all the Agents back together, and no one likes what they’ve found on the other end of the tether. But when R Cell has already come this far, there’s no way they won’t see the mission through to the end…even a mission that they weren’t supposed to pursue.

Kaleidoscope Episode 9 - All News is Bad News

Wed, 13 Sep 2023 00:00:00 -0700

Hunter becomes hunted becomes hunter again. Rowan has been pushed past her limits and come out the other side, but this chapter is far from resolved. It’s time to recover your senses, reassess the situation at hand, and reconvene the troops. Because after all: it’s not paranoia if they’re actually out to get you.

Kaleidoscope Episode 8 - Grove St 4 Lyfe

Wed, 06 Sep 2023 00:00:00 -0700

(CW: Explosions, Vehicle Sounds) No one expected “let slip the dogs of war” to literally be the next big influencer trend. Regan and Ross try to connect the dots between their respective meetings with Alexia Preston, but another mysterious meeting awaits in the verdant secrecy of yet another exclusive group. Still, it might be worth hearing out the offer; at least these two already know that books can indeed be very dangerous…

Ask a question, get an answer and seventeen more questions. Interviews complete, River now returns to one of the biggest of those questions: how to deal with the Hound now that it seems to have resurfaced. The trouble is that if you look into mirrors for too long, you might not like what starts looking back.

Kaleidoscope Episode 6 - Skincare and the Underworld

Wed, 23 Aug 2023 00:00:00 -0700

(CW: Misophonia, Gore Sounds) Influencers are supposedly just people too, but Regan is rightly wary of applying that assumption to Alexia Preston. However, more information is always better than none, and if that requires diving deep into the sordid underbelly of Insta-perfection, so be it. Time to “yaaaas-and” into yet another mystery.

Kaleidoscope Episode 5 - HumInt's Best Friend

Wed, 16 Aug 2023 00:00:00 -0700

It’s not the way R Cell usually gets activated, but when Lt. says go, the Marine doesn’t question the order. Rooster turns his attention to a different blast from the past, seeking someone who might connect back to a certain DJ from the Burn. But once you tug on the web, it’s hard to say what might come crawling after you…

Kaleidoscope Episode 4 - Golden Buttons

Wed, 09 Aug 2023 00:00:00 -0700

Mysterious meetings sometimes come with the lawyer territory, but even those can hardly compete with what the “other job” offers. Still shaken from the return of nightmare best forgotten, Ross can’t help but feel like this appointment might bring more danger than disclosure. Still, maybe it is safer to try and make a deal with the devil you know, because the other ones are still a mystery so far…

Kaleidoscope Episode 3 - Intergalactic Pizza Party

Wed, 02 Aug 2023 00:00:00 -0700

R Cell is used to having more questions than answers, but then again: scientists do love asking questions. With a handful of names and a full tank of gas, River sets off to interview more of the “blue goo people” to see if they can fill in any of the missing gaps of what happened out in the desert. After all, if you don’t ask questions how else can you turn a hypothesis into a theory?

Kaleidoscope Episode 2 - Podcast Mystery Machine

Wed, 26 Jul 2023 00:00:00 -0700

Domestic bliss was nice while it lasted, but in this line of work that’s rarely for long. It’s not a “coinkydink” that the conspiracy podcasts have started sniffing around Rooster…or his past…but it does make him wonder: what do they actually know?

Kaleidoscope Episode 1 - Political Junkfood

Wed, 19 Jul 2023 00:00:00 -0700

There’s no rest for the weary, and the end of elections only means the start of work for Ross and Regan. But when a familiar figure from that Thing in the Desert turns up at a political fundraiser, the lines between work and “other work” start to cross more than the Agents are comfortable with.

Interludes 5.5

Wed, 17 May 2023 00:00:00 -0700

Once you know what's out there, you can't un-know. And so even when the Agents return to their mundane names and activities, there are things they see wherever they go that bleed over the edges of the other job, things that sooner or later will have to be faced.

(Additional music used: https://soundcloud.com/myuu/nebula)

Interludes 5

Wed, 10 May 2023 00:00:00 -0700

The scenery has returned to normal, but the heartbeat of the Playa still reverberates through the Agents' lives. For some perhaps that's to their benefit, but maybe there are some things that would have been better left behind...

Ancestors Episode 16 - The Man Burns

Wed, 03 May 2023 00:00:00 -0700

Reflecting on the way things have gone…well, maybe that’s a poor choice of phrase. But now that the real world is crashing in on the temporary city, the Agents find themselves not far from where they started: with too many questions, and too few answers. The mission may be over, but that doesn’t mean the work is done.

Ancestors Episode 15 - M.O.O.P.

Wed, 26 Apr 2023 00:00:00 -0700

It only takes an instant to go from underprepared to overwhelmed. The Agents have finally realized just how vast the problem is, a problem that will have consequences reaching far beyond the insularity of the Burn if they don’t immediately find a way to do…something. When every choice is a risk, how do you decide the least worst choice to make?

Ancestors Episode 14 - Moonwalker

Wed, 19 Apr 2023 00:00:00 -0700

“Wandering around has given us a certain amount of progress…” Yet again split across the Playa, the Agents must be swift and decisive in their actions to try and prevent further disaster. Can deliberately baiting the predator turn the tables for the prey, or has the dust of the Playa obscured more than just their vision?

Ancestors Episode 13 - Participation

Wed, 12 Apr 2023 00:00:00 -0700

The Burn might be siiiiiick, but the Agents are more ill at ease about everything that’s been happening. Still, with an actual night of sleep and nothing stronger than a cup of coffee in their systems, perhaps they can finally try to piece together the scattered and shattered pieces of this puzzle and see the bigger pictures emerge.

Ancestors Episode 12 - Reality Bends

Wed, 05 Apr 2023 00:00:00 -0700

Sometimes risk brings reward, but this risk might have gone a step too far. R Cell has uncovered vital new information, but protecting themselves from it may have cost one of their only strong leads. Danger seems to be mounting as more and more attention is turned to the team, but their clues are dwindling fast with every exit of another connection. Turns out even keeping the party together isn’t always enough to keep you safe…

Ancestors Episode 11 - Leave No Trace

Wed, 29 Mar 2023 00:00:00 -0700

Once a predator catches your trail, it can be nearly impossible to shake, and the more in the pack the more danger that stalks. Between the threads of Spider J’s web, the sights of the UFO drones, and the attention of whatever lurks behind the mirrors, the Agents no longer know if they are targets, or simply caught in the collateral wave. Can they race the clock to a real solution, or are they just prey on the run?

Ancestors Episode 10 - The Playa Provides

Wed, 22 Mar 2023 00:00:00 -0700

Many say the Burn is a place to open your mind; the trouble is they don’t always say what might enter if you do. The questions are piling up, but the Agents seem to have fewer answers now than when they arrived. As the clock continues ticking toward the deadline of a mission they’re still not sure they’re on, it might be time to risk opening up in a whole new way.

Ancestors Episode 9 - Chasing Shadows

Wed, 15 Mar 2023 00:00:00 -0700

With enough pressure, sand becomes glass, and seems for some of our agents the situation is indeed becoming clearer. DJs and drugs run rampant, UFOs and unsettling new leads arise, and it’s time to pull the troops back together and trade new information quickly. After all, it doesn’t take much to turn glass into a mirror…

Ancestors Episode 8 - Safety Third

Wed, 08 Mar 2023 00:00:00 -0700

Rule One: Never Split the Party. But then, when has R Cell ever followed the rules? With five Agents spread to five different parts of the Playa, will some of them finally find solid leads, or will the blur of the Burn blind them to the dangers that lurk at the edges of every turn?

Ancestors Episode 7 - Radical Self-Reliance

Wed, 01 Mar 2023 00:00:00 -0700

His eyes have to be playing tricks on him, right? As a new day dawns over the Burn, the Agents attempt to continue their investigations. But between the drugs, the dust-storms, and the ghosts of the past that have suddenly appeared, it’s getting harder than expected to figure out what’s a lead and what’s leading them on.

Ancestors Episode 6 - Trash Fence

Wed, 22 Feb 2023 00:00:00 -0700

If R Cell ever had a plan, this…was not it. Ross and Regan have scored an in with the influencers, but it remains to be seen if they’ve made it or been made. Rooster has made some connections, for better or worse. And Rowan and River pore over paperwork, reading between the lines of the official reports to see what Unnatural happenings were left out.

Ancestors Episode 5 - Placement

Wed, 15 Feb 2023 00:00:00 -0700

First another Desert, and now another Spider? R Cell has made contact with their Friendly on the Playa, and they finally have a solid red string to pull on. But how does a dangerous drug-dealing DJ connect to their mission? And speaking of drugs, this trip is beginning to be more than some Agents bargained on.

Ancestors Episode 4 - Birgins

Wed, 08 Feb 2023 00:00:00 -0700

When everything feels alien, how do you even look for the Unnatural? R Cell has landed at the Playa, but this Thing in the Desert is a far cry from a base in Afghanistan or a hotel in Arizona. The best the Agents can do is try to blend in, grab a bite, and keep an eye out for trouble...though where R Cell goes, the last isn't usually far behind.

Ancestors Episode 3 - Dust Angels

Wed, 01 Feb 2023 00:00:00 -0700

Research, check. Transport, check. Sparkle ponies…check? Being fully prepared is impossible, but each Agent of R Cell has done what they can on their own. Now only a few last stops stand between the team and the wild new world of the Playa.

Ancestors Episode 2 - Precompression

Wed, 25 Jan 2023 00:00:00 -0700

The team is reassembled, but the mission specs are not. With a rare chance to prepare before heading out, R Cell going to pull on every thread they can find. They need every lead they can string together, especially before facing yet another desert.

The Horror Out of Ruth Hollow Episode 4 - Uncle Monster

Wed, 21 Dec 2022 00:00:00 -0700

Nope. Absolutely not. When you started the day, you thought you had a chance to show the partners what an asset you are to the firm. You also thought those stupid owls were the endangered species. Instead, you’re spending the night locked in a haunted single-wide, where the plants tuck you in with tooth-filled baby dolls and fling pumpkins at you…what the hell kind of a sentence is that!? And even if it wasn’t still snowing outside, that thing that destroyed the car is back and out for blood. There’s gotta be some way out of here…right?

The Horror Out of Ruth Hollow Episode 3 - Nightmare Fuel

Wed, 14 Dec 2022 00:00:00 -0700

What…what the hell just happened!? You thought the weirdest part of the day was going to be the way Mr. Titus ate dinner, or maybe that book Wilbur was reading, but that thing…what the hell was that thing!? And how did it do that to your car!? Now the snow is falling harder, your car is in literal pieces, and your options seem to be hike to the creepy abandoned trailer park or go back to the Titus house, again…oh god. You’re totally screwed, aren’t you?

The Horror Out of Ruth Hollow Episode 2 - Bad Connection

Wed, 07 Dec 2022 00:00:00 -0700

The folks up here are a lot more helpful than you expected, with the exception of Ms. Titus herself, although at least she seems to be hearing you out. Still, you’d rather not stick around here any longer than you have to. These roads, if you can call them that, are not meant for a Prius, and people might be friendly, but they’re definitely staring…and so is that pig out in the yard. Just like the people, actually. Like, human eyes. Is that phone reception picking up yet?

The Horror Out of Ruth Hollow Episode 1 - Spotted Owl

Wed, 30 Nov 2022 00:00:00 -0700

When the Executive Vice President of the firm asks you specifically to deal with a problem, of course you jump at the chance to prove yourself to the partners. So, if that means you have to grab your work-BFF, drive four-and-a-half hours north of Sacramento into the rural backwoods of California, and try to convince some old lady to let a conservationist team investigate a threatened species that lives on her property, you hop in the Prius and go. Sure, the cell service might suck, but a little trek into nature can’t be that bad a way to spend the day, right?

Beck in Bedlam Episode 5 - Rogue

Wed, 09 Nov 2022 00:00:00 -0700

Knowledge is power, and to some that makes it precious: something to be locked away from the prying eyes of the public. But now a book is overdue, not properly checked out, and the fines may be mounting. It turns out rogues are clever at getting past locks, and once a River is set in motion it’s very hard to stop the current…

Beck in Bedlam Episode 4 - Motion

Wed, 02 Nov 2022 00:00:00 -0700

A flash drive with millions of years’ worth of data. An unassuming public library guarded by a too-familiar invisible barrier. A dead man's son with information about The Library. Agent River has managed to tease out some answers, but has still ended up here: sitting across from a man with both Cyprus Security and Motion Inc. on his business card. What information does this Mikhail Klopper have to offer? And what new questions will it raise?

Beck in Bedlam Episode 3 - The Library

Wed, 26 Oct 2022 00:00:00 -0700

The guard with the switchblade is evidence that someone doesn’t want River in the Petaluma Public Library, and access to the knowledge within will pass more twists and turns. But our Theseus may already have the ball of yarn he needs to navigate this labyrinth of knowledge.

Beck in Bedlam Episode 2 - Connections

Wed, 19 Oct 2022 00:00:00 -0700

Closing a missing persons case is a win but it’s concerning that Javier can’t remember the details of his rescue. There’s a lot of red strings to pull between the Wingate-Peaslee’s information, the business card from Muir Wood, and Javier’s drive. But will River find answers or just more questions?

Beck in Bedlam Episode 1 - Missing Persons

Wed, 12 Oct 2022 00:00:00 -0700

Some questions require answers even when there isn’t an official mission. So when Agent River receives a mysterious voicemail, he follows the trail to the office of Professor Nathaniel Wingate-Peaslee. And everything points to the Chroniclers and the brothers Castillo.

The physical wounds may begin to close, but the emotional wounds stay fresh and raw much longer. Every Agent eventually has to ask: What happens when the body heals and the mind doesn’t? How much am I willing to sacrifice to complete the mission? Where do I finally draw the line?

Against all odds, R Cell did it. They survived Olohega and stopped an ancient god from entering this world. Only the agents knows what happened out there, and how the thin string that holds reality aloft was nearly severed. But the hardest part may be returning to their normal lives. How do they go back to a life concerned with jobs, rent, families, and mental health when all of it was so close to being snuffed out? But that world still exists. At least for one more night.

Idaho Episode 6 - House Party

Wed, 24 Nov 2021 01:00:00 -0700

(CW: Body horror, sexual situations)

R Cell is split three ways: River has gone into the house party, Rory and Rooster are still out in the cold, and Rowan is alone on her way back from shutting down the power to the house. Splitting the party is never a good idea, but the decision has been made. The question now is if the agents can regroup before anything goes horribly wrong.

Idaho Episode 5 - Generator

Wed, 17 Nov 2021 01:00:00 -0700

(CW: Body horror, sexual situations)

The basement is too warm, too humid, and covered in mustard-colored “pudding.” The ick factor is real. But the live-stream is still online and coming from the house above them. The infection must be stopped.

Wed, 10 Nov 2021 00:00:00 -0700

(CW: Body horror, sexual situations)

The list of creepy Unnatural artifacts gets longer as Rooster and River continue their inventory. But the real concern is with Rowan and Rory. They’ve contained Skip Mills, but containing whatever is incubating inside him is a different matter.

Idaho Episode 3 - Inventory

Wed, 03 Nov 2021 00:00:00 -0700

(CW: Body horror and sexual situations.)

The contents of the Green Box are secure, but that doesn’t mean that R Cell can relax. There’s strong evidence that Skip Mills let something escape into Bonner’s Ferry. And if it’s anything like what Rooster encountered in Brazil, they don’t have much time.

Idaho Episode 2 - GB224

Wed, 27 Oct 2021 00:00:00 -0700

Things are just great in Bonner’s Ferry, Idaho. R Cell’s Friendly is missing, cell reception is spotty, and they’re stuck in a trailer with a broken window with abysmal weather outside. But at least there’s nothing Unnatural. Right?

Idaho Episode 1 - Polar Vortex

Wed, 20 Oct 2021 00:00:00 -0700

Six months after Mustang, it’s time for R Cell to saddle up again, this time to investigate a compromised Green Box in Idaho. But the deadly polar vortex that’s turned the temperature to -60 F with wind chill makes things more difficult. Out of the frying pan and into the freezer; it’s time to put the spurs back on!

While unsure what Rowan is “immune” to, the fact she has some sort of protection from the nightmares of her past is a much needed morale boost.
