Welcome to Night Vale
''Welcome to Night Vale'' is a podcast presented as a radio show for the fictional town of Night Vale, reporting on the strange events that occur within it. The series was created in 2012 by Joseph Fink and Jeffrey Cranor, and is published by Night Vale Presents. Cecil Gershwin Palmer, the host, main character, and narrator, is voiced by Cecil Baldwin, while secondary characters are sometimes voiced by guest stars, such as Carlos, voiced by Dylan Marron. The podcast typically airs on the first and fifteenth of every month, and consists of "news, announcements and advertisements" from the desert town,〔 located "somewhere in the Southwestern United States". In an interview with NPR, Joseph Fink said that he "came up with this idea of a town in that desert where all conspiracy theories were real, and we would just go from there with that understood."

Every episode of the podcast includes a piece of music as "the weather", each by a different independently published artist. The theme and background instrumental music to the series were created by the musician and composer Disparition. In July 2013, ''Welcome to Night Vale'' became the most downloaded podcast on iTunes.〔

Fink stated that "it's going to have all the characters and weird atmosphere that you want from Night Vale, with a brand new story that explores parts of Night Vale that we just haven't been able to get into with the podcast."〔 When the book became available for pre-order the following March, it became Amazon's #2 title seven months in advance of the release date.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Spooky podcast 'Welcome to Night Vale' is coming to a bookstore near you )〕
''Welcome to Night Vale's'' plot consists of long form storytelling. Individual episodes usually function as stand-alone narratives and only rarely contain significant developments in storyline. The writers employ running jokes and plot arcs, advanced slowly through the events described in the podcast. Characters and narratives may emerge and develop slowly, while unrelated stories may combine to form new plot points. 〔 Major stories have occurred, including the development of a romantic relationship between Cecil and Carlos;〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://thegeekiary.com/why-welcome-to-night-vale-is-important/4211 )〕 the stranding of several characters, including Carlos, in a 'Desert Otherworld'; the invasion of and eventual expulsion from Night Vale by the corporation 'StrexCorp' from the rival town of 'Desert Bluffs'; 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://ladygeekgirl.wordpress.com/2014/09/28/oh-my-pop-culture-religion-religious-colonialism-in-welcome-to-night-vale/ )〕 and the 2014 mayoral elections, with subsequent terrorist activities by failed candidates The Faceless Old Woman Who Secretly Lives In Your Home and Hiram McDaniels.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.therainbowhub.com/the-word-has-no-meaning-the-resolution-of-conflict-and-belonging-in-welcome-to-night-vale/ )〕
