It's going to be a long wait until October!!

Absolutely!

You may already know that there is an existing Night Vale novel, and a second coming later this year, maybe that would be useful for inspiration?

Welcome to Night Vale: A Novel

Welcome to Nightvale

Any explanation about what it is excatly won't do it justice. You kinda just need to listen to it to understand it. Kinda reminds me a little of Douglas Adams "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy". It's a podcast in the form of a community radio broadcast. The station voice named Cecil (Smoothest talking voice ever) talks about the strange and weird events which occur in the town of Nightvale. It's not like any normal story. The whole town is completely and utterly weird and uncanny. There is often mention of the Sheriff's secret police, a miniature city of people living beneath the bowling alley declaring war, and hooded figures stalking about. I haven't listened to the whole podcast yet but I'm currently in the middle of an election between The Faceless Old Woman Who Secretly Lives in Your House (That's really her name) and a Six-Headed Dragon.

There's lots of social commentary, existential pondering which often leads to some cosmic horror type scenarios, and just a lot of overall insanity.

If you don't want to listen to the entire podcast, they just released a book. I haven't read it so I can't vouch on whether or not it has the same style as the podcast but you can find out by checking Goodreads or Amazon reviews.
