About

"The burning eyes... that looming thing with those terrible, burning eyes."


Welcome, one and all, to Boston, circa 1923. The roaring 20's are well underway, but a disturbing undercurrent has seeped into the city. You and a group of fellow investigators find yourselves hired by one Mr. Knott to investigate disturbances at one of his local properties. Since a terrible tragedy some time ago, he's been unable to rent out the property due to the place's reputation. It's probably just some tall tale spooking the neighbors, but it couldn't hurt to be certain. It surely can't be anything more than a trick taken too far... right?


This introductory adventure for the Call of Cthulhu cosmic horror TTRPG system is perfect for newcomers to the game, whether you have dozens of other games under your belt or you're picking up the dice for the first time. This one-shot horror experience will introduce you to the rules of the game, acquaint you with an intrepid party of fellow adventures, and give you a taste of the horrible, eldritch truth that lies beyond the veil.


  • Game System: Call of Cthulu

  • Experience Level: 🟩 No experience necessary. This is a LEARN-TO-PLAY event and we love teaching!


"An immersive tabletop gaming experience like no other!"

Meet your Game Master.


Hello, everyone! I’m 'Archangel' and I'm relatively new to the TTRPG scene, having been playing and DMing for a little over a year now. But I’ve fallen in love with the format, and I can’t wait to game with you! I do a lot of Homebrew D&D, as well as introductory Call of Cthulhu, and hope to eventually play some Vampire: the Masquerade. I specialize in horror settings, but I’m always down for a little of everything. So I hope to see you all at the table someday, whatever style you prefer!
