It's September first. And for those who know me at all, I consider this to be the first day of Halloween. I said in my last post that I wanted to showcase cool Halloween stuff that I come across that others of my ilk would appreciate. It runs the gamut: there's art, there's music, there's even horror-themed poetry! For those, like me, who can't get enough of the Howling Season, these are going to be things you may not otherwise know about that might make your Halloween even more fun!
I've got some great ideas already, but I thought I would start with something of my own. Late last year, I did some writing for a role-playing game which is now called Mythos Talse, based on the works of H.P. Lovecraft. In it, the players seek to solve mysteries under the tutelage of Dr. Armitage, a professor at Miskatonic University. It's been a long time coming, but that game is slated to come out in October. October! (Kismet, my friends. *the universe drops the mike and walks off the stage*)
I've played a few of the scenarios in this game, and let me tell you, a good time will be had by all! You don't have to know Lovecraft to love this game. You don't have to have played role-playing games to love this game. Truly, you don't even have to be a great fan of horror to love this game. It's just fun! But if you are all of the above, then you must get this game! It's produced by 8th Summit Games, and, I kid you not, it's dope. I'll talk about it more when it's officially released. But for now, just know that it's out there, waiting to be played. So, that's my first Halloween offering. But certainly not my last. And as I said before, if anyone out there has anything you'd like the world to know about, drop a line here.
Come back soon to see other cool seasonal stuff. Until then...
