WHO ARE THE RATS IN THE WALLS?
They’re your friendly neighborhood graffiti crew and cult. They are the children of the Goat with a Thousand Young. They know the gatekeeper, Old Yog. They know that SAMO is an alternative to death. They’ve seen Ghostbusters, and they found it inaccurate.
They eat trains and live forever.

“And, most vivid of all, there was the dramatic epic of the rats – the scampering army of obscene vermin which had burst forth from the castle three months after the tragedy that doomed it to desertion – the lean, filthy, ravenous army which had swept all before it and devoured fowl, cats, dogs, hogs, sheep, and even two hapless human beings before its fury was spent.”
–“The Rats in the Walls,” HP Lovecraft
