Egyptian mythology horror audio drama Long Night in Egypt continues. Kayla is still sitting on her secret — the book glows, and she does not know why. Meanwhile, Uncle Abasi and Aunt Rania, Cairo archaeologists with access to the great ancient sites, welcome the group with a feast and the stories of the old gods: the Ennead, the nine deities at the center of ancient Egyptian theology, and the Pyramid of Unas — a monument so old it contains the earliest religious texts ever written.

Samira is paying close attention. After dinner, she takes the group out into Cairo. Tomorrow is the official pyramid tour. What happens after midnight is still being decided.

Written by Sarah Pitard. Directed by Jack Bowman. Score by Talip Peshkepia. Sound design by Jan Piasecki. A Violet Hour Media production.
