Call of Cthulhu – The Phantom of Wilson Creek – The Wizard of Wilson Creek Game 2

In the summer of 1928, yet another group of Boston investigators tried to sort out the strange happenings around the Campbell House near Mortimer, NC.  The man who had been asked to deal with the house was debunker Marshall Hutchins.  He’d brought with him writer Stephen Tucker, photojournalist Thomas Fitzsimmons, dilettante Derek Masterson III ( who also fancied himself a writer), and occultist Simon Leavy.  The five men would find less to debunk than to fear.

This game was originally run at CaesarCon 2012 in Bryan, Ohio, on March 17, 2012.  The Wizard of Wilson Creek is the third scenario in The Phantom of Wilson Creek, a monograph I wrote that was recently published by Chaosium.  As the investigators fled the house without solving the newest mystery of the place in the game session I ran before, I thought someone else might be sent to sort things out.  The role playing journal of the events here can be found at:

Call of Cthulhu – The Phantom of Wilson Creek – Return to Yellow Buck Mountain

In the summer of 1927, Boston Herald columnist William Madison received a letter from private investigator Alex Talbot, an associate.  More strange things were happening at an abandoned house in North Carolina and Talbot had no time (or inclination possibly) to deal with it.  Madison decided to make a vacation of the request, taking with him his wife, librarian Susan Madison, photographer Walter Corden, city reporter Robert “Bobby” Simon, Dr. Harvey Gibbens, and Reverend Michael Fullbright.  They would find things there that they could not explain.

This game was originally run at MACE 2011 in High Point, NC, on November 11, 2011.  Return to Yellow Buck Mountain is the second scenario in The Phantom of Wilson Creek, a monograph I wrote that was recently published by Chaosium.  The role playing journal of the events here can be found at:
