“Welcome to Night Vale” is a twice-monthly podcast about the fictional American desert town of Night Vale and the very, very weird things that happen there.
Welcome to Night Vale” host Cecil Baldwin and members of Disparition’s backing band, during a live show. |
Presented as a series of Night Vale Community Radio bulletins by station announcer Cecil Gershwin Palmer (actor Cecil Baldwin) and occasionally joined by actors doing other characters, the podcast includes unsettling news briefs such as “It is possible you will see hooded figures in the dog park.
