"This is a song about the nagging feeling that your demons will pursue you to the grave, um, I mean I don't know that they will, but I can't assure you that they don't." -- John Darnielle - 2011-03-30 - Bowery Ballroom - New York, NY

- Janitor of Souls: Carl spends most of his time on the job picking up garbage and scrubbing fixtures. It's pretty well-known, however, that he's also a good guy to call when you need to sweep away ghosts or spirits or other ectoplasmic detritus. All part of keeping the place clean.
- Former Author: He doesn't talk about it much, but in his youth Carl was a fairly successful author. He wrote two books of what was supposed to be a fantasy trilogy, but never delivered the third. That was a long time ago, but avid readers might have heard of him.
- Bad Old Days: Erratic behavior, bankruptcy, substance abuse, jail time - Carl was a real mess for a long time. He seems to have it together these days, but it's the kind of stuff that'll follow you around. Nobody who knew him in the first two decades of the 21st century has much nice to say about the guy. Maybe you've talked to one of them, maybe you are one of them.
A middle-aged white guy with an unexceptional build, a little on the short side of average. His hair is brown with plenty of gray, and a tendency to stick out at weird angles like the bristles of a well-abused paintbrush. His eyes are brown, with upper lids that droop a little at the corners, and he has deep worry lines between his eyebrows.
