A Deep and Creeping Darkness: Horror One-Shot

About the adventure

The mining town of Vermeillon was once a prosperous mountain village, full of happy, industrious miners doing good business. That is, until the incident. That's when people started disappearing. Now, none dare to visit this ghost town, and merchant caravans avoid going through it for fear of whatever lies in wait. Of course, should someone manage to make Vermeillon safe again, they'd stand to make a small fortune. The platinum mine still holds treasure within, and the region could be restored to prosperity. To succeed, though, they'd need to figure out what haunts the old town, and deal with it - or else, suffer the same fate as those miners long ago! In this one-shot horror-mystery adventure, you'll have to work together to discover the hidden monster of Vermeillon. Keep your eyes peeled and your head on a swivel, or else you, too, might disappear into the darkness! An adventure that focuses on isolation and slow-building tension, this is an excellent experience for someone who wants to take a walk on the spooky side. Come with me, and step into the eerie, creeping, too-quiet stillness of this ghastly tale!
