Residue of the Past

ADD TO WISHLIST >

IT'S A PERFECT PLACE TO LOOK FOR GHOSTS.

The Greely House near Monson Center, New Hampshire, has been the site of everything that’s perfect for ghost hunters: black magic, murder, kidnapping, disappearances, strange lights, ritualistic killings, and even the place where several ghost hunters died or disappeared 50 years ago.  What more could an up-and-coming ghost hunting organization ask for in a haunted house?

Now, a small group of amateur ghost-hunters with Ghostlore is going to spend the weekend at the house in hopes of getting some footage.  Will any of them escape alive or is this their last assignment.

Residue of the Past was originally written as a convention scenario but is detailed enough for home play.  The Call of Cthulhu scenario is set in the Spring of 2020 during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic  but can easily be adapted to different times or locations.  Something dangerous has dwelt in the Greely House for over a hundred years.  Something unlike anything the ghost hunters have encountered before. 

Residue of the Past  includes:

- A 24-page fully-illustrated scenario set in New Hampshire in 2020 (or any modern day time period) near the first inland colony in the state.

-Information on the nearby towns of  Brookline, Hollis, Milford, and Monson Center.

- Advice on scenarios set during the early COVID-19 Pandemic in the United States.

- Four fleshed-out Non-Player Characters as well as stats for three other groups that might appear  in or near the house.

- Maps of the area near Monson Center, New Hampshire, and the Greely House, including blank maps for the players’ use.

- A Timeline of strange events at the Greely House and background information on the group of ghost hunters who disappeared from the place in 1971.

- Thirteen handouts detailing the history of the area and the Greely House.

- An audio handout of a cassette tape and recorder found in the house.

- A brief synopsis of the Ghostlore investigators.

- NPC and investigator portraits to share with the players.

- Six Pregenerated investigators.

I was a playtester for this scenario- it's a great setup for a one-off adventure, or integrated into a modern-day CoC campaign. I would recommend this for more experienced GMs, the time shifts get a little complicated, but overall it's a highly focused and detailed scenario set in the early COVID-19 pandemic time of March 2020.

Thanks Chad! Your Don was awesome and I had a blast running this for you. The game went directions I didn't expect and the feedback from my playtesters was fantastic.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
