Every episode of the frankly sublime Scarifiers has something special about it and this more than any of the others should tickle the funny bones of adherents of Lovecraft. Faultless performances and sound design.

Yet another hearty laughable story. Great.

Brilliantly written and so humorous! The characters are so endearing and fabulous. I wish there were more to listen to.
