The Gaming Hut<\/strong> goes retro goth cartoony as Patreon backer Arthur invites us to envision an Edward Gorey RPG.<\/p>\n

In the Crime Blotter<\/strong> we look at Los Caballeros Templarios, the drug cartel that borrows the branding of the Knights Templar.<\/p>\n

The Cinema Hut<\/strong> finds us mulling historical inaccuracy in movies. When do we roll with it, and when do we bust out the well actuallys?<\/p>\n

Finally, at the behest of backer Wayne Rossi, we turn to the Consulting Occultist<\/strong> for the mystical skinny on Carlos Castaneda.<\/p>\n
