Lore Boys here with some more special Halloween lore, so last week's mature content warning is STILL in effect. This week we're talking about Harlan Ellison's 1967 Short Story, I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream, and the game written and voiced by the author!

It's a horrible post-apocalyptic world where a Facebook super-computer has taken over everything and is keeping people alive with their eyes peeled to the timeline... or maybe that's just my personal hell.

Ethan creates a hurricane, Peter goes for a walk to cool off, and James meets Mothman.
