Lost in Williamsburg 20: A Little Bit Longer

So this is it. The big super-sized finale that provides a closure of sorts to the Cats With Benefits/Old Country Road Killer storylines. Though Halloween night has ended (depending on how you define such things), there are still plenty of horrific things in store for the residents of Williamsburg. But what do a couple pieces of ugly old jewelry have to do with anything? I can't tell you that, but I will say that not everyone makes it through alive to find out the answer! This podcast contains swearing. Robert Mosby as Roger P. Shiffle Mike Turner as Ed Jackson Jalen Mouser as Toby Frank Battle as Mr. Toliver Ed Champion as Dr. Blevin Claudia Swain As Jordan Bales Claire Penix as Meghan Marshall Lynn Sikora as the nurse Philip Burcher as John Dunhill Linda Hertzler as Valerie Dunhill Susan Branch Smith as the unnamed ghost Jacob Wilson as Josh Ryder Reid Perkins as Caleb Souter Suzanne Douglas as Cynthia Souter Louise Menges as Margaret Souter Will Hausman as Dale Souter Austin Beach as Mr. Guest Sarah Golding as Mrs. Guest Daniel Turner as Zeph Metcalf Zoë Bowen Smith as Ally Burks Colleen Kennedy as Hexabeth Blackhard Series Recap for Those Just Joining Us: The Thing in the Floorboard Now that greasy thug Ed Jackson has gotten his grimy little hands on the weird object Valerie Dunhill stashed away at the old Dunhill farmhouse all those years ago (waaayy before she started secretly murdering tourists), what will happen to it? We'll find out when Ed's shady employer at the Historic Williamsburg Corporation, Mr. Toliver, finally makes an appearance. What could he want with the strange artifact? Hopefully nothing kinky. Cats With Benefits Aaron, the lead singer for the majorly underappreciated college rock band Cats With Benefits has been missing for a couple weeks now. Unbeknownst to the band, the secret séance convened to contact Aaron in the afterworld has ended in a bloody mess. How badly were people hurt? Will CWB keyboardist Josh forgive WCWM DJ Caleb Souter for participating, or is it splitsville for Calosh? And why did Caleb go to the séance in the first place? He must have had a good reason. Meghan the Psychic So, the séance of William & Mary's resident student psychic Meghan Marshall didn't go that well. But she's finally vindicated, right? She actually did commune with the dead. Didn't she? Will her encounter with the alleged spirit of Hexabeth Blackhard leave her traumatized or enlightened? I've got five dollars riding on the answer. Hexabeth Blackhard Will the 18th century sorceress Hexabeth finally crawl her way out of two hundred years of darkness? Those crazy kids huddled in the attic of the Equator club certainly got much more than they bargained for when they started talking with the no longer living. Whatever happens, I'll bet it will add an interesting new chapter to Hex's diary. The Dunhills A visit to the old family homestead, breaking and entering, a police escort...aged patriarch John Dunhill hasn't seen this much excitement in years! It would have been even more exciting, but old friend Roger P. Shiffle was not receptive. When he recounts the family-friendly version of the night's adventures to his comatose daughter Julie, will she so much as flutter an eyelid? A pro-tip for first time listeners: If you hear a ventilator, that means your in Julie's room. And she still hasn't revived. The Souters I'm starting to think that B&B owner Margaret Souter is never going to leave her bed. When you're as old as she is the slightest upset can derail your whole damn life. Maybe it was the hip operation. Maybe it's the weight of knowing so many of Williamsburg's secrets. Or maybe she's tougher (and more manipulative) than we think. Her son Dale probably has an opinion on that. And now that he's learned some the town's secrets (via Hexabeth's diary) what will he do with the knowledge?   Produced, directed, written and scored by Phillip Merritt Thank you to Freesound.org for the use of their creative commons sound effects. ©Phillip Merritt, 2018
