About the adventure

Season of Ghosts is an immersive Pathfinder 2E campaign set in the mysterious village of Willowshore on the continent of Tian Xia, drawing from Asian mythology and culture. The campaign spans a full year, blending monster hunting, ancient spirits, and solving supernatural mysteries, with a strong focus on village life. Players will not only face eerie hauntings and battle dangerous creatures but also build connections with the townspeople. As the seasons change, so do the challenges bringing together day-to-day living and dark, mystical threats that haunt Willowshore. In Willowshore, the Reenactment Festival is a grand celebration held on the last day of spring, but it's more than just a party—it's a ritual meant to trick the spirits that haunt the town each summer. As part of the tradition, you are chosen to play the role of a villager "abducted" by neighbors disguised as ghosts. The entire town participates in this elaborate farce, with wailers mourning and others pretending to panic, all in an effort to deceive real spirits into believing the town is already haunted, driving them away before the true haunting season begins with the first day of summer. You were all chosen as the "abductees" for this year's festival and rolled up in straw mats and left out in the forest. But when you wake up in the forest the next morning, everything feels wrong. No one comes to find you, and you're in a different part of the forest than when you went to sleep. The eerie calm is shattered by a thick fog rolling in, and in the distance, you hear the roars of unknown creatures and the terrified screams of townsfolk. This campaign promises a rich, atmospheric experience perfect for those who enjoy investigation, personal storytelling, and combat. It's ideal for players looking to immerse themselves in a setting that feels like living inside a myth, where the village and its people become as important as the threats that challenge them.
