Trail of Cthulhu - Bookhounds of London

Join us for a short campaign set in London during the 1930's, using the "Trail of Cthulhu" system. You can attend every session or just one here and there.

Our setting is the "Marlowe & Sons" bookstore in a seedy side street of SoHo.

This session features two investigations...

"The Poe Ritual" - This started in the last session. The group have performed a ceremony based on an urban legend..that burning pages from a first edition book by Edgar Allan Poe before a statue of Hypnos will grant a dream leading to a special book.

Having secured a Poe book from Neville Casters,a man with connections to Nazi Germany, they performed the ritual in the British Museum. The vision showed them an unknown Poe book, "The Red Nun", hidden in the basement walls of...somewhere.

"The Seance" - Lady Rachel McMaster is hosting seances in her house in Notting Hill. These are quite the event, complete with indoor fog and astonishing details from her spirit husband, "Swerdlow". Local gossip suggests that a key to the "trick" is a book she uses, "The Swerdlow Grimoire".

This is now highly desired by collectors,and John Leopold, major rival agent to "Marlowe & Sons", will be attending the next seance on behalf of an unnamed client....
