In this new feature on Lightless Beacons, we’ll be opening the book on Lovecraft’s classic tales of terror. In lively and incisive panel discussions we’ll talk about the stories themselves, their relationship to the Call of Cthulhu RPG and their influence on other horror media and weird fiction. Tonight we focus on Dagon, the story of a sailor haunted by his discovery of a nightmarish island bearing remnants of an inhuman civilisation.

As with all our Call of Cthulhu actual plays, this episode contains adult themes and content that some listeners may find distressing. 

Immersive and evocative with music, sound effects, and a stunning cast, Lightless Beacons is an Actual Play podcast featuring the Call of Cthulhu TTRPG. Along with actual plays (live plays) of both classic and brand new Call of Cthulhu scenarios, we also feature regular panel discussions.
