Halloween One Shot: Part 1, Mystery at the Melrose Mansion

In part one of this two part Halloween special, stories and characters collide to achieve a common goal: search the recently inherited Melrose Mansion and report back to the inheritor on the status of the estate. However, this mansion is not all it appears to be; with new discoveries and chilling haunts around every corner, this high-stake RPG will have you asking yourself if consequences truly outweigh one's goals. Using the Blades in the Dark play system, follow our 7 attentive adventurers as their GM leads them through an escapade inspired by the Betrayal at the House on the Hill board game.
