Overview[]
| “ | Say your prayers. Light your lamp. Load your revolver. It won't do any good. Pagan Publishing is proud to present five non-Mythos scenarios of supernatural horror and mystery from author John H. Crowe III. Inside this musty tome you won't find deep ones, or shoggoths, or Great Old Ones, but you will find loathsome horrors perpetrated by both the living and the dead. Ghosts, demons, poltergeists, spirits and the undead are the order of the day. What horror is devouring the locals in "The Westerfield Incident?" What has caused the graves to open in "The Vengeful Dead?" Can the Investigators save themselves from "The Bitter Venom of the Gods?" Will they unravel the "Curse of the Screaming Skull:?" Can they bring peace to "An Unsettled Mind?" It won't help your Investigators if they've read the Malleus Monstrorum or own their own copy of the core Call of Cthulhu rulebook. There's nothing in those well-thumbed volumes to help them here. In here, they're on their own. |

Trivia[]
- The credits page lists the cover image as copyright Rick Sardhina [2], while the back cover gives it to Samuel Araya. However, given that each scenario is listed as being illustrated by a single artist, and he is not given as the artist on any of them [3], it seems likely that Sardhina provided the cover.
- The book was originally intended to contain only three adventures , but ended up including five [4].
