The group learns of strange fires on Stratton Mountain in Vermont, as well as a reward for a missing journalist. They decide to investigate, but the investigation soon takes a deadly turn.

I started running a Call of Cthulhu campaign for students at Appalachian State University in March 2014. The game was set in Providence, R.I., starting in the summer of 1925. The fifth session of the game took place on June 1, 2014, with the scenario “The Madman” from the 6th Edition Rulebook. My players were Bo, Logan, James Dixon, Kyle, John, Aaron, and Nissa.

The role playing journals for the session can be found here:
