About the adventure

It’s the height of the Prohibition Era and you are a member of the O’Bannon mob, based in the town of Arkham. Your boss has a job for you: bring in the Eddings family, one of the mob’s hooch suppliers, to answer for some missed deliveries and locate the overdue cases of moonshine. That means that you and your companions must drag yourselves out into the Berkshire Hills of western Massachusetts, namely the area around the village of Dunwich. There you will search for the Eddings family, uncover scenes of destruction, and fight for your lives against an implacable foe. Inspired by Boardwalk Empire, Lovecraft Country and (of course!) the works of HP Lovecraft, this action-packed one shot is a perfect opportunity to try out Call of Cthulhu. This session is perfect for beginners looking to immerse themselves in this setting.
