Nightmare in the Moonlight

ADD TO WISHLIST >

SOMETHING IS TERRIBLY WRONG IN PROVIDENCE

When a psychiatrist finds a note written by an illiterate man, he hopes to do something about it, but he can’t bring himself to investigate the address listed in the missive.  His only hope is a friend who might be brave enough to see what terrible thing lies in the house.  But in the bustling metropolis of Providence, Rhode Island, what true terror could there possibly be when the street is only a few yards away?

Nightmare in the Moonlight is the adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft and J. Chapman Miske’s The Thing in the Moonlight.  Based primarily upon a dream Lovecraft wrote of in one of his letters, Miske’s framing story and the original nightmare are detailed within

Nightmare in the Moonlight was originally written as a campaign scenario but can also be used for convention play.  The Call of Cthulhu scenario is set in November, 1927, just after Thanksgiving of that year.  Now someone’s life may depend upon a note written by a man who cannot read or write and a group of people who are looking into the occurrence.  Can they solve the strange case in time?

Nightmare in the Moonlight  includes:

- A 22-page fully-illustrated scenario set in Providence, Rhode Island, in November of 1927, including notes on H.P. Lovecraft’s last known residence.

- A 24-page Modest Gazetteer of Providence, including the city’s history, neighborhoods, locations of interest, scenario locations, and towns nearby.  Additionally, mythos stories  and Call of Cthulhu scenarios set in the city are discussed, and a timeline of Lovecraft’s habitations are included.  Finally, Joseph Curwen and Charles Dexter Ward are both discussed with a timeline of those men as well.

 - Ten fleshed-out Non-Player Characters as well as stats for the Thing in the Moonlight.

- Information on the Thing in the Moonlight.

- Maps of Providence, Rhode Island.

- A map of College Street and the house thereon, as well as maps of the place Howard Phillips finds himself and the vehicle there.

- Three handouts.

- NPC and investigator portraits to share with the players.

- Six Pregenerated investigators.

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.
