*More* than a little strange

Why am I suddenly wondering what "Call of Cthulhu" would be like done as a musical?

Update: yes, I know about "Shuggoth on the Roof", but was thinking more along these lines. Closer to "Phantom" than to "Fiddler".

Probably a lot like this.

Serious rather than funny. Closer to "Sweeney Todd" or "Phantom of the Opera" than to "Fiddler on the Roof".

Because you need to get a copy of 'A Shoggoth on the Roof'?

Got one. And the libretto.

I was thinking of something more like a grand opera version of this

Hrmmm.. Could be cool, yes. Iiiiiinteresting.

Write it.

Only problem is that there don't seem to be any women in the story. Can't have an opera without a soprano!

But it's still tempting...

Are we talking the game or the story? Very interesting, hmmm, need to find those special machines that make the other worldly noises, and get those special buckets of blood, oh and the Idol, the glow in the dark idol out of storage....this would be fun!!!

The story.
