Arnie, Chunt, and Usidore run a chaotic vampire blood drive at a new tavern. A fish person searches through magical fog for Elaine, while a tiny ghoulie demonstrates her bizarre toilet-jumping routine. An invisible divorcee shares supernatural custody woes, and a crowded vampire gathering ends with an unexpected underwater invitation.

A corpse collector faces financial ruin when nobody in the kingdom can die, so he and his beloved frog, Grape, search for a new path. Their plans range from tourist attractions and soup dunk tanks to launching Grape as a music sensation. Along the way, a mysterious frog illness, a disastrous vacation pitch, and a plea for companionship turn the journey into delightful chaos.

Kevin Sciretta, a Chicago-based improviser and Improvised Shakespeare Company performer, returns as the flamboyant Dripfang LeDesparé. At the royal court, Dripfang demands his own noble House, touting villainous allies, questionable credentials, and grand plans. Negotiations involve necromancy, royal coins, Bebo, and an unusually hostile path to gentry status.

Vaden Todd Lewis, Toadies frontman and “Possum Kingdom” singer, arrives as a bizarrely bald Sasquatch. He shares his origin story, explains the Forest of the 90s under King Cobain, and discusses flannel, failed romance, bossy hounds, and magical catchphrases. Along the way: toe hair, hair smocks, Bigfoot confusion, and the legendary Rachel haircut.

Arnie fears his royal duties have turned the trio into mere work friends, so they trade tours of their bizarre castle quarters. Usidore reveals a bird-shit laboratory, Chunt unveils worm drama and magical seeds that grow confused horses, and Arnie dreams up adjoining rooms to reunite them. Along the way: royal marriage politics, possible courtship, moon plans, and the mysterious power of a three-pat gesture.

Mike O’Brien, comedian, writer, actor, and former Saturday Night Live player, plays Vespa, an interplanetary prison-camp zapper. He describes endless rock-breaking, shock-based workplace perks, barred dorms, violent coworkers, and resentful slug rulers. The conversation veers into romantic confusion, fake deaths, crocodile anatomy, strip poker, and Vespa’s disastrous first encounter with music.

Gianmarco Soresi, a comedian, actor, writer, and podcaster, plays Nicolo Pastasmith, a desperate pasta heir seeking work as a knight. He recounts a childhood shaped by adultery, family chaos, and horseback pasta deliveries. A hilariously doomed combat audition leads to erotic family portraits, an unexpected artistic calling, and a new position at court.
