Still, despite his Enochian compass and Lytian chalk, he'd become lost in the maze of constantly shifting corridors, disappearing doors, and rearranging staircases. One thing that hadn't failed him was his Max Heiss chronograph; he'd been in the house for two days now. All this time he'd managed to stay ahead of the slow, nonchalant footsteps of the ghostly gunman appeared to be stalking him.<br /><br />All of this was as he'd expected, and now he'd found what he had come here for. He'd found Hulysses Mulciber's study, and as the medium had told him he would, in the top left hand desk drawer he had found a single caliber .45 cartridge. On the dull lead bullet, CHESTER WINFORD was engraved in neat letters.<br /><br />Now all he had to do was get out of the house before the cold killer caught up with him. It was, Chester thought, time to improvise.Haraldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09864029225698561023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8302487761596456689.post-89296498726666224302012-02-07T00:26:19.553-05:002012-02-07T00:26:19.553-05:00Hi Trey,

You oughta to a post on the comparison between designing a haunted house and putting together a "dungeon" (of course, maybe you already have and I just missed it).<br /><br />@Canageek - I did the post on Borea, of course, but there is certainly more I could do with that. There are a few more tidbits in <i>Weird Adventures</i> too. But I'll put some thought into a post on this.Treyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04647628467658839351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8302487761596456689.post-2779575622384188342012-02-06T12:10:02.935-05:002012-02-06T12:10:02.935-05:00I hope you don't mind me posting this here, bu...I hope you don't mind me posting this here, but I'd love to see more on the arctic regions of the world. You could even borrow an old Canadian term for it that is rather pulp: "The Land of the Midnight Sun"<br /><br />"There are strange things done 'neath the midnight sun<br />By the men who moil for gold.<br />The arctic trails have their secret tales<br />That would make your blood run cold.<br />The northern lights have seen queer sights<br />But the queerest they ever did see,<br />Was that night on the marge of Lake LeBarge<br />When I cremated Sam McGee." --The Cremation of Sam McGee, Robert W.

I've produced a number of my own Halloween events as well.<br /><br />Putting a "haunted house" into an RPG setting can be tricky, but I love this as a template!
