Seek the Wolf in Thyself!
At one time, I was really obsessed with abandoned asylums and most especially with Danvers State Hospital. Being the core inspiration for Arkham, I could not imagine why there was not some kind of source/adventure book about it. I really wanted to pool together whatever sources I could to put together such a book but unfortunately,…
I gathered a few images across the internet to help visualize Danvers Hospital. They are nothing special and most people can find them on their own but this saves you the trouble.
For Free RPG Day 2016 I made 6 characters – 4 men, 2 women – roughly based on the first party concept suggested in the adventure (Option One, luxury yacht owner and friends). They a group of passengers on a Yacht, lead by the owner of the Yacht. The owner – Charles “Mac” McQuinlan – is…
I found that the Call of Cthulhu A Restoration of Evil” mini-adventure, although perfect for a convention game, still did not convey enough about the cult. In one instance, I am not sure the group completely understood that it was a cult at the center of the plot. Nevermind the fact that there is a…
New Hook The Investigators are hired by Arkham Archeology Society and sent to Red Hook because HORACE BAKER reported finding an artifact in the wreckage of the Park Place disaster.

From the Dead Reckonings Sourcebook (converted to CoC 7e) Pre-Game Read and Prep I am planning on running this on Dark Rivals for one of my game day events, RonCon. I picked it relatively randomly although I like the “caught in the middle of a Livecraftian War” aspect to it. However, I do have a few…
Playtesting for the first time, the adventure I have been writing. Back in the day, I came up with a rough concept that I ran twice. Both times were in CoC (whatever version was published that year) and both went very well. It became known as the “spider adventure” or “vampire adventure.” Without, getting too…
For the past year, I have been running “Uncle Timothy’s Will” from the Blood Brothers supplement at conventions. I have always been skepticle about non-Lovecraftian horror in CoC but I decided to give it a shot. I ran this at MACE West 2013 and StormCon 2013 adn both turned out awesome! I plan to do…
Playtest at MACE At MACE 2012, I was given an opportunity by Chad Bowser to run Call of Cthulhu 7th edition. He sent me the PDF of the August (GenCon?) version of the playtest rules, which I printed out and attempted to cram into my brain in the two weekend before the convention. When I…
