NINE II MIDNIGHT - The Horrors of Our Dreams

Released on 10/31/2022

It seems like the horrors of our dreams are most frightening to you... 


On the Eve of Halloween, a dozen storytellers sneak inside the abandoned Darklight Carnival grounds to share a chilling batch of stories in two varieties. This year they split up to uncover the fears that lurk within and horrors that walk among us.


One group will head to the Ferris Wheel to tell tales of real-world terror. The other will venture into the Funhouse to spin yarns of the frightening spirit world. Which path will you embark on first?

Announcement: Rusty Quill Gaming and Giving 2020 - The Magnus Archives

Announcement: Rusty Quill Gaming and Giving 2020

Released on 12/07/2020

Hey everyone!

Mike here, Rusty Quill’s video guy and I’m pleased to announce that Rusty Quill’s Gaming and Giving will be back this year and we’re going digital!

Come join in as we go live at 11am GMT on the 12th December on Twitch.tv with 24 hours of videogames, board games and general fun and frolics. Yes, that’s right, I said 24 hours.

We’ve made a few changes to the show this year, one of which is that we’ll be raising money for three charities: Mind, Action Aid and the Black, African and Asian Therapy Network and anything we raise this year will be split evenly across all three of them.

Last year, we managed to raise just over £10,000 in 12 hours and I’m confident that, with your support, we’ll raise even more this year! Plus, let’s just say there may be some... creative incentives for our viewers who donate.

So tune in to www.twitch.tv/rusty_quill on Saturday 12th December at 11am GMT to help us kick off Gaming and Giving 2020 and let’s send this year off with a bang!


This year, Rusty Quill Gaming and Giving 2020 will be raising money to support:

Mind - https://www.mind.org.uk/

Action Aid - https://actionaid.org/

BAATN (Black, African and Asian Therapy Network) - https://www.baatn.org.uk/
