Well, I hope everybody has their thinking caps on and is in a twenties kind of mood, in anticipation of the next game. A little tip for those of you who have never played in a Cthulu style game, NEVER, EVER go into the basement or the attic. Those that do, never seem to come out quite the same!!!
"MOUTH OF MADNESS"
By Kevin Sauder
October 28th
Boston Globe News Flash October 28th, 1921
Professor Malcolm Neville-Brown, Dean of Egyptology at Miskitonic University has announced the discovery of an ancient parchment, remarkably well preserved, that details a strange history of a race of beings that lived before record ed time. Fundamentalist religious leaders have scoffed at this incredible revelation that flies in the face of accepted dogma. After making the dramatic proclamation, the Professor has been unavailable for comment.
Many interested parties, including this newspaper, have converged on Arkham to get the scoop on this spectacular development, either to debunk the good professor, or prove his theories.
