The H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society @hplhs.bsky.social has a new Call of Cthulhu scenario out, with a ridiculously large box of props to use with it!

If it's anywhere near as fun as The Dog Walker scenario for their Arkham Investigator's Wallet Prop Set, this should be pretty great!
We are very happy to announce pre-orders for our newest Call of Cthulhu adventure: The Spark Devil! Produced under license from our friends @chaosium.bsky.social, this is a complete box set, set in 1935 Providence. Shipping expected in October! store.hplhs.org/products/the...
The Spark Devil
This original prop-intensive Call of Cthulhu adventure pits Investigators against shocking horrors in Depression-era Providence.

When we retired the Monograph series several years ago we invited all those who had created in it to republish their work in the Miskatonic Repository. And so we're delighted another monograph title returns: the old Mysteries of Ireland is back as Cthulhu Ireland!
