Will they be able to glean answers from the shadows looming over New England or will they succumb to the maddening call of the Terrible Secret of Lot X?

Lot X Part 2: X Marks the Spot

Housed within the hallowed halls of the Miskatonic University library is one of the few known copies of The Necronomicon - a tome of the unknown - of death, and power. Seekers of arcane knowledge are drawn to it. So it should be no surprise that Estelle Thorpe’s path has led her here.
While half of the troupe journey to the wilds of Essex, Ms. Thorpe is accompanied by gambler, Kenneth Roger, and good time girl, Cherry Featherbottom, to consult the impossibly rare book. A book which the late Charles Pell, presumed dead peddler of obscurities, had hoped to reference in his nefarious dealings.

Lot X Part 7: Dust to Dust

The theatre is a magical place. A place where fact becomes fiction, fantasy becomes flesh… the human experience is laid bare! Fitting then that Boston’s Monarch Theater should be the site of a horrendous ritual that also happens to be a stage play... a diabolical work called The King in Yellow.
If performed, it wouldn't just be the dénouement for our heroes, but perhaps the world as we know it.

Lot X Part 8: Dénouement

Mystery Program showrunner, Cat Blackard, and Keeper, Luke Stram, interview Chris Spivey of Darker Hue Studios, author of the award-winning Call of Cthulhu sourcebook, Harlem Unbound.
​Harlem Unbound dynamically explores the real world history, personalities, social intricacies, and Lovecraftian mythos in 1920s New York City and Harlem; while confronting racism in that time period and as a part of the roleplaying experience. We speak with Chris about the challenges of bringing this project to life, the brand-new Second Edition from Chaosium, how to thoughtfully and safely explore racism in RPGs, and get juicy details on the jaw-droppingly expansive scope of his next major project, Haunted West.
