Carl Kolchak, a reporter for Chicago’s Independent News Service, had a knack – or perhaps a curse – for stumbling into the bizarre and unsettling. Each story he chased led him down a rabbit hole of vampires, werewolves, zombies, and creatures ripped from folklore, but his efforts to expose these extraordinary events consistently met with one obstacle: Tony Vincenzo, his relentlessly pragmatic editor. No matter how compelling the evidence, Tony remained convinced that Kolchak’s tales were simply elaborate fabrications born from exhaustion and an overactive mind.
