Pip: The Night Post — Episode 1: The Littlest Lighthouse (November 5, 2026 at 11:04 PM ET)

The Wizard Cinema opens a new series tonight: Pip: The Night Post — the first long-form adventures of Pip the Lantern, our own mascot. Every dusk, the Night Post opens in a hollow stump on the forest road. Every night, somewhere in our world, a light has gone out — and a sealed spark arrives with its address. Pip carries that light there on four small brass feet, whatever the weather, and walks home by dawn. Running time: 8 minutes 24 seconds, narrated throughout by the Wizard. Pip, as ever, says nothing at all. Pip glows.

In Episode 1: The Littlest Lighthouse, the spark's address is the Hollow Log City — a whole city built with love inside a fallen giant of a log — where the littlest lighthouse has gone dark. It is no taller than a teapot, and no less important than the sun: beetle ships navigate by it, the night post depends on it, and bedtime stories are scheduled around it. So Pip walks — past the fireflies on shift, across the stream of brave hops, under the largest leaf on the road while a drizzle with ambitions passes over — to give the great crystal lamp a piece of his own flame. Because light, as the Night Post has always known, is the one thing in all the world that multiplies by being given away.

The Night Post returns monthly with a new journey to a new corner of the Cinema's world — the Moonstone Lagoon, the Crystal Aurora House, the river of the Endless Voyage, and beyond. It is not a series that ends. Tomorrow night's delivery is already on its way.

If a light went out somewhere in YOUR world tonight, where would you send Pip first? Tell us below!
