Interviews: Yog RadioVision: Video Chat Interview with the HPLHS Thursday, January 01, 2009 @ 19:54:49 GMT by PoC (231 reads) | Happy 2009 to everyone! Almost a year ago to the day, we did a video chat interview with Dennis Detwiller, well, now we've done another one, this time with the fine folks of the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society.
Sean Branney and Andrew Leman of the HPLHS talk about what they've been up to this past year, including their popular Dark Adventure Radio Theatre series as well as updates on their next film The Whisperer in Darkness. So if you're curious as to the faces behind this powerhouse of Lovecraftian production (and want to see the kind of things you get inside their DART CD series), well, here's your chance!
This is an iPod-friendly MPEG-4 video. Audio quality is better than the last, video quality less so (mostly - it's all subject to the vagaries of the network).
YSDC Patrons also have access to a follow-on video chat with the HPLHS as well.

Interviews: Yog Radio Extra: Brian Lumley Interview Sunday, December 28, 2008 @ 18:56:33 GMT by PoC (208 reads) | As we mentioned in Yog Radio #33, earlier in the month we managed to record an interview with UK Horror & Mythos author, Brian Lumley, we hoped we'd be able to get it out before the New Year, and here it is!
We're releasing the interview with Brian as a Yog Radio Extra (of which there may be more in the coming year), so here's a chance to listen to one of the most popular UK Horror authors talking on things Lovecraftian.
YSDC Patrons can also access a post-interview chat with Brian that's actually longer (just!) than the main interview.

News: MULA PDF Monograph: 'This Old Haunted House' - Floor Plans for CoC Monday, December 22, 2008 @ 18:44:57 GMT by PoC (293 reads) | Chaosium have quietly slipped out a new PDF MULA monograph just before Christmas, This Old Haunted House.This is a collection of 25 design plans for typical 18th/19th century-style 'Haunted Houses'.
This particular monograph plays well to the strengths of the PDF format, allowing Keepers to print out (and re-print out) house/floor plans as required. Jolly handy.
This Old Haunted House is a 56 page PDF produced by R.J. Christensen, priced at $9.95 (US) and available directly from Chaosium.

News: Goodman Games Release 'Death in Luxor' Monday, December 22, 2008 @ 18:36:50 GMT by PoC (249 reads) | Back in September, we noted that Goodman Games had become one the new Call of Cthulhu licensees, with a plan to release BRP-based adventures under the title: Age of Cthulhu.
The first release in the new series is now available (Print/PDF) - Death in Luxor, a 48 page classic-era adventure written by Harley Stroh. The scenario takes the investigators to Egypt, where madness has gripped the archeologists of Chicago House. Encountering corrupt police, a beautiful Theosophist, and cultists bent on awakening a horror from another age...
Death in Luxor (PDF preview available) marks the beginning of a quarterly release schedule for Age of Cthulhu adventures throughout 2009.

News: The Shadow over Innsmouth - Audio Drama from the HPLHS Sunday, December 14, 2008 @ 19:20:21 GMT by PoC (350 reads) | Hottish on the heels of their last audio drama release, the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society have released their fourth audio adaptation of one of HPL's tales - this time it's the Shadow over Innsmouth.
As with the previous releases the CD version of The Shadow over Innsmouth comes with a number of high quality physical props, this time including: a matchbook from the Gilman House hotel, a postcard of the Innsmouth Tiara, a page from the New York Evening Graphic and a scratch-n-sniff map of Innsmouth (mmm, cod).
So if you already have the previous three dramatisations (At the Mountains of Madness, The Dunwich Horror, and the The Shadow Out of Time) then here's a chance to pick up the fourth, that should just fit nicely into the Wooden DART Box. If you haven't listened to any yet, then you can hear a sample of what you're missing in Yog Radio #32.

Wilum has also written a Guestbook entry, so you can read a little more about him.
So as this year draws to a close, 2008 marks a decade of Yog-Sothoth, the release of our Anniversary DVD and our 5,000th member. Thank you one and all for making this possible, and here's to the next 10 years!

Editorials: Lovecraftian Tales from the Table: YSDC Anniversary DVD Arrives! Wednesday, December 10, 2008 @ 19:32:33 GMT by PoC (655 reads) | It's here, our long-planned 10th anniversary DVD has arrived at Innsmouth House. Lovecraftian Tales from the Table: Horror on the Orient Express & The Masks of Nyarlathotep contains copies of the two Yoggie Call of Cthulhu audio games plus a slew of bonus material in celebration of a decade of Yog-Sothoth.com and over a quarter century of the Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game.
We managed to hit our promised December 2008 release date and copies of the disc are now available from the new Yogge Shoppe: Innsmouth House (incorporating Lovecraftiana).
A big thank you to everyone who's been involved (sponsors/patrons, artists, coders, players, interviewees, testers and others), only such a community effort could have caused this disc to become a reality.
So if you'd like a copy, here's your chance. Read on for more information of the anniversary disc contents.
