Pacing issues

Me and my friends have played a little bit of Cthulhu but nothing long term and I had a few questions.

  1. How long should a Cthulhu campaign go for? Is it like D&D as to where it’s up to the DM and players

  2. How long and how much of the mythos should I introduce? Do I drop it slowly over a long course of time or do I drop it in major chunks

  3. In a longer campaign (one year +), would players stay as the same character throughout most of it or is it reasonably to say that they are going through a few characters

  4. Im running a Wild West campaign, using down darker trails, I’m taking inspiration from RDR2 and such, they are following a railroad into Tennessee where I will have them get lost in the Appalachian’s and introduce some folklore, does that work for Cthulhu mythos or no? Also how much world building and such should I do before I introduce any mythos? Is it weird to run it mostly as a cowboys and have mythos be a background for most of it?

TV Ambience

I have a TTRPG table with a TV in the middle of it that we recently built. We haven’t ran call of Cthulhu on it yet but we typically don’t use battle maps for Cthulhu so what should I use the TV for so we don’t have a giant waste of space on the table?
