Hello everyone!

The Asylum theme has been waiting for two years in my to-do list. I knew full well it was much needed, but there was too many elements that made me doubt. I wasn't sure how to handle it, nor if I had the sounds required for it.

Over the years, generous members of the community offered their voice for the ambiences (it's still possible here!), which made possible this whole project from a technical perspective. On Halloween, TTRPG content creators usually spam you with haunted mansions, forests and cemetaries. We already covered that, so I knew it was the time for the Asylum.

When I think of Asylums in fiction, I mostly see modern ones. It's *especially* fitting with the Call of Cthulhu TTRPG. I wanted to do something that'd fit in most scenarios though. These six ambiences feature very little elements that'd attach them to specific eras or times, so it should be good.

As for the feel of each, I imagined a place where mentally ill people are kept and taken care of. This is not the most joyous place, as you'll hear. I wanted it to be creepy, so I used the same reverberation you could find in Alcatraz cells. Some tracks should sound like a prison.

There are other tracks I wanted to do, such as a single cell in which you hear a crazy dude drawing things on the ground or on the walls with chalk. The required sounds simply don't exist on internet so I tried recording them myself, but the quality wasn't satisfying. If the Patreon keeps growing, I'll invest into a proper recording room for such uses.

The more you go down in the levels of the asylum, the more creepy it gets. On the lowest level, you can use the "Asylum Souls Extractor" track, which is where your players will meet the BBEG. What if the asylum residents weren't crazy but became so over the years because of the evil presence underneath ? It's up to you!

As for the SFX, it's more broadly Halloween themed than simply Asylum. There are two extra SFXs as Pierrick made "BBEG Playing Organ" and "Vampire's Awakening with laughs, and some of us (me including) don't like when it sounds too comedic, so he made more neutral versions.
