Tickets Please!
Allan Carey ($8.99, 30 page PDF)
"Powering its way across the Atlantic, the British-built Z200 airship cruises at a steady 90mph on its maiden voyage to New York. Its record-breaking speed is thanks to a revolutionary fuel. But the source of that fuel is proof that the boundary between genius and madness is narrow indeed..."
Brought to you by award-winning Chaosium licensee, Type40, Tickets Please is the fifth Call of Cthulhu adventure in the monthly Seeds of Terror range of concise, easy-to-run adventures.
The Folly of Ponsonby-Wild
Iain Ross ($4.11, 41 page PDF)
Life sucking creatures from beyond our world, malevolent entities beyond our comprehension, and portals to unseen realities all play a part in this story. As does a delicious cream tea in a delightful country setting.
'The Folly of Ponsonby-Wild' is the first Scenario in a four part classic 1920s Call of Cthulhu campaign, A Very British Horror. This scenario can just as easily be run as a stand alone episode or assimilated into your ongoing game.
The Wombwell Stones
Iain Ross ($5.48, 50 page PDF)
'The Wombwell Stones' is the second scenario in the A Very British Horror classic 1920s Call of Cthulhu campaign. The scenario works best if it follows The Folly of Ponsonby-Wild, but included in the book is a section on how to modify it to run as either a stand alone episode or as part of your own ongoing game.
Call of Cthulhu: Five Moments More
Andrew Vernon, Kayley Khan (Free, 40 page PDF)
To step foot into the realm of the Dream would seem to be an invitation into festivals of wonder and merriment. Nothing is ever that simple. The moment that one closes their eyes to enter the Dream, the Nightmare is soon upon them. To truly be free of the Nightmares and their insidiously cunning and unstoppable leader, the Miserly Mister, Investigators must find the very core of Dreams themselves with the help of sly cats, Yithian warriors, and Sleepers like them.
What Lies Beneath the Skin
Tony Kyprianou ($2.99, 44 page PDF)
When a woman's mutilated body is found on the banks of the Serpentine in Hyde Park, it is identified as the missing daughter of a wealthy family. The Investigators are called in to find the perpetrator. When another body is found a few days later, it is clear that a Serial Killer is at large. They must follow the trail of a Serial Killer who has a terrible plan; a plan he made one million years before he was born.
An Investigative Cthulhu By Gaslight Scenario taking 3-8 sessions. Mature Content.
Missing in the Woods
Brandon Estelle (Pay-What-You-Want, Recommended Price $4.99, 14 page PDF)
19 Year old Ashley Garrett has gone missing after spending a night camping with her friends in the Blackwood National Forest, and the Search and Rescue Service has called for volunteers to help with the search - but you'll soon find that there's more at play here than a simple case of an unprepared camper who lost their way...
