Welcome to the final episode of series 76, everyone! In this series, we sat down with Tyler Samples, the Keeper from the One Shot Network show, Mystery County Monster Hunters Club, to learn about Monster of the Week, an urban-fantasy horror PbtA game from Evil Hat Productions that lets you play out your favorite monster of the week style shows like Buffy, Supernatural and so much more! This episode, we discuss the process and get into some truly inspired fanfic for our unhinged world we created together.
