The Innsmouth Terror front cover. By John Hedge and friends. Tentacles float in the darkened sky above a boat and the Devil reef.

A few months ago, we at the @miskatonicplayhouse.com noticed that there just, weren’t any scenarios on the Miskatonic Repository about storied Innsmouth.

So we decided to do something about it.

Just published a supplement for Call of Cthulhu, which features my first ever short story in print (Ex Libris)! It was great collaborating with so many creative minds on this. If you want a collection of 60+ tomes of forbidden lore for your game, check it out!

It’s all pretty much slog, but I’m finding some Mothership modules to be quite short and sweet.

I’ve yet to find a trifold that makes any kind of sense to me though.

Ready for a curtain call?

John Hedge and his friends at The Miskatonic Playhouse kindly provided us with a reviewer copy of "Stage Fright at the Playhouse".
In addition to being known as a prominent member of The Miskatonic Playhouse John is also known for his Alpaca scenarios.

The scenario is 32 pages, set in 1923 Arkham, and our Investigators were tasked to uncover the secrets of the Miskatonic Playhouse. 
What dark secrets we discovered we´ll keep to ourselves but we had a great time uncovering them.

Designed for three to five players, it can be run as a stand-alone adventure or as a sequel to Edge of Darkness (from the Call of Cthulhu Starter Set). We played it over a six-hour session with a group consisting of a mix of players, some familiar with Edge of Darkness and two who were not (they were given a resume of Edge of Darkness), and it was fun for us all.

The scenario’s balance of mystery, investigation, and tension kept us entertained and engaged throughout the 6ish hours of play.

As said Hedge is known for his lighter Alpaca scenarios, but this entry is in a far more serious tone, delving into themes of sibling loss, compulsion, and sanity breakdown. The well-structured layout, summaries, and timeline charts ensure a smooth experience for Keepers.

The scenario has a lovely production value with full-color handouts and maps, five pre-generated Investigators, and a new Mythos tome.
If you're looking for a well-organized and engaging mystery with a theatrical twist, this is absolutely a great pick and well worth its price tag of $5.49

As my work life suddenly became more challenging, I’ve taken a bit of a break from TTRPGs to save on mental energy.

Painting Warhammer / Necromunda terrain is my new zen activity.

Flesh Wounds, by @petedoom.bsky.social

This is a really well crafted Reanimator sequel, with dire consequences if the investigators don’t succeed.

Which do people prefer for solo RPGs? Journaling (deck of cards, random tables, etc) or Choose-Your-Own-Adventure?

Includes not just a couple drink recipes — 16 very inventive, on brand mixes, some of which might cause us to roll sanity.

This is raising the bar on expectations from any Call of Cthulhu scenario and rulebook from here on. 8th edition better include homemade Cthulhu-batta bread.
