Twin Cities by Night

Welcome to Twin Cities by Night.

This channel began as a way to share our chronicles of White Wolf’s Vampire: The Masquerade, starting with the campaign that bears our name. At its heart, our storytelling embraces the darker tones of the World of Darkness—exploring themes of personal horror, morality, and the struggle against the Beast within. While Twin Cities by Night remains our flagship tale, we have since expanded to explore a wide variety of tabletop roleplaying games. Alongside our central chronicle, we’ve told stories such as Servitude (Ghouls: Fatal Addiction), Juarez on Fire (Vampire: The Masquerade), and The Ultimate Evil (Chronicles of Darkness). We’ve also ventured into mythic sagas with Scion, the raw emotions of Monsterhearts 2, the chivalric tragedy of Pendragon, and the occult mysteries of Call of Cthulhu.

Every chronicle—whether rooted in the World of Darkness or beyond—remains dedicated to what drives us most: immersive storytelling, complex characters, and the atmosphere of darkness that binds them all together.

Show notes

Join us as Chris breaks down how Clive Barker's "Books of Blood" can be used as inspiration in your games.

About the Chronicle

Brian’s Book Club is a casual, thoughtful series where Chris discusses horror novels, genre fiction, and books that have shaped the tone and themes of Twin Cities by Night’s storytelling over the years. Each episode blends personal reflection, literary analysis, and grounded discussion on why certain stories resonate so powerfully within the horror genre.

This is not a typical review podcast—Chris focuses on atmosphere, lessons learned, narrative craft, and the emotional impact of each work. For listeners who enjoy horror, literature, behind-the-scenes creative talk, or discovering new stories that spark inspiration, Brian’s Book Club offers a grounded, intimate, and sometimes surprisingly heartfelt experience.

Demon: the Fallen "Fragments" Chapter 14: The Weight of Mercy Sep 27, 2019

Show notes

In the chill of a Rochester night, faith falters, and loss speaks louder than miracles. A wrong turn and a dying signal lead the Fallen back to Ruth Sedona’s shelter, where grief pours from a bottle and an old friend’s diary opens wounds that never healed. As the group struggles to comfort the living and honor the dead, Lily’s memory cracks open—a flash of war, of angels, of promises made and broken. Between streetlights and sapphire glow, the echo of Heaven’s mercy meets the ruin of Hell’s truth.

About the Chronicle

Demon: The Fallen – Fragments is a Chronicles of Darkness story set in the early years of the new millennium, when the first of the Fallen return to the mortal world. Each prelude explores the awakening of a demon within its human host — charting the boundaries between redemption and ruin, grace and obsession.

Demon: the Fallen "Fragments" Chapter 13: Footprints of Faith Sep 25, 2019

Show notes

Blood blooms across a studio hallway and Lauren answers it with a mop and a vow. When the others arrive, grief and memory knot with the present: a hospital stretcher becomes a golden hall, a diary whispers of loss, and a simple pendant grows warm as if listening back. Powers spark, tempers flare, and a jagged surge of faith rips across the city like lightning. By night’s end they have a direction—east, then north, then east again—and a promise: whoever brought the knife will answer for it.

Demon: the Fallen "Fragments" Chapter 12: The Gate Between Sep 22, 2019

Show notes

As snow turns to rain and night falls on Rochester, Lauren runs toward a friend’s pain and stumbles into something far older. The walls of the hospital blur into marble halls of gold, where echoes of the War flicker behind mortal suffering. Between the cries of the living and the silence of the dead, she learns how thin the veil truly is. When she leaves, a name and a wound follow her home — and something unseen follows close behind.

Show notes

In the heart of Tábor, faith begins to take shape in terrible ways. Sir Reinhard, filled with divine certainty, finds purpose renewed as light and voice merge in a miracle of his own making. But while the knight walks the city streets with righteous fire in his heart, Brother Jan faces his own revelation — one born not of heaven, but of desperation.
As word of his “miracle” spreads, the faithful whisper his name in awe, and the damned take notice. Whether salvation or ruin follows, none can yet tell.
