The Great Gate (Friday the 13th Edition) (Patreon)

We here at Fool & Scholar Productions take spooky holidays very seriously...So it should come as no surprise that every Friday the 13th we've started to swap out episodes on the Dark Dice feed with alternate DARKER versions of our stories in the hopes of starting urban legends/creepy pastas about our shows ;) This is the special version of Episode 7, which is EXTREMELY DARK. The second half of the episode is fully scripted, with fantastic performances by everyone, but especially Hem Cleveland.

The team encounters a great stone gateway and a puzzle that blocks their path...
