The Dark Lady Podcast - "The Last Carnival" - Original Audio Drama
Matthew Ewald for Hanson
Hanson is a tall, strong, and authoritative security guard. He cares about his job and does everything by the book.
[Stage direction: The security guard is standing at his post, keeping an eye on the crowd. A teenage boy suddenly appears in front of him, begging for help. The teenager says he’s been attacked.]
“Take it easy! What’s your name? Brian. Okay. Brian, my name is Hanson.”
“I need you to take a deep breath and calm down. Good. Now tell me what happened.”
[Stage direction: Hanson pushes a button on his walkie-talkie to contact his superiors.]
“Base 3. This is portable 9 on channel 1. Please acknowledge..”
“Possible 10-26 at the west gate. Please advise.”
“Affirmative. Roger that.”
“Everything is going to be alright, kid. I’ll take you to the main office so you can call your parents.”
“Ferris wheel? What Ferris wheel? The carnival hasn’t had one in years.”
