With the summer upon us we wanted to share a little cross promotion from John’s storytelling/roleplaying series Bored Ghost. This is a cheesy-horror movie inspired summer camp tale. 

Bored Ghost comes out every Monday with a half story- this episode we’ve posted represents two combined episodes to make one complete story. 

Each episode has a new illustration to accompany the tale. 

The game used to play this game is Fiasco- you can listen to that primer episode for how this game is played at boredghost.com

You can listen to Bored Ghost episodes here. New episodes drop every Monday.

pt4: Pride & Prejudice (Film 2005)

Keith’s pick this week is post-9/11 adaptation of Jane Austen’s “Pride and Prejudice by director Joe Wright.

Keira Knightley as the straight-shooting Elizabeth Bennett. This movie has a great cast.  

Mr. Darcy in the Mist. Matthew Macfadyen plays the aloof bachelor.

You can rent or purchase Pride and Prejudice on Amazon or iTunes.
