Call of Cthulhu – Down Darker Trails 17 – A Very Weisswald Christmas 1

It’s time to take a break from the terrors of the old west when Dr. Eva Weisswald invites her companions to come to Wheeling, West Virginia, for Christmas with her family.  But … something is not altogether right here.

On January 20, 2019, the Down Darker Trails campaign, taking place in the American West, continued with the original scenario “A Very Weisswald Christmas.”  Players were Ashton, John, Yorie, Ben, James, and Samantha.  There was some difficulty with the recording so it was broken up somewhat.  There are three different recordings of this game session.

Call of Cthulhu – Fear Jet 73

“Lady and the Scamp” was a popular musical and comedy duo, much like Sonny and Cher.  They take a flight along with their lawyer, agent, and the Lady’s hairdresser and makeup woman to their next gig in Las Vegas.  However, the Learjet they’re taking there isn’t all that it seems and they find themselves somewhere far more terrible.

I ran the original Call of Cthulhu scenario Fear Jet at the App State Gaming Club Gamefest on November 18, 2018, at Appalachian State University.  The players were Ashlyn, John, Curt, Chandler, and Carl.
