I already have this, but if you’re curious as to how the DARK ADVENTURE RADIO THEATER recordings go, this is a good time to try one out:

Check out the ARKHAM INVESTIGATOR’S WALLET PROP SET from the @HPLHS.
So, the ARKHAM INVESTIGATOR’S WALLET PROP SET was a little rich for my blood. Even if it did come with a printed Call of Cthulhu adventure that used the wallet (and was suitable for convention games). But then I realized that I had a ridiculous amount of store credit with the HPL Historical Society: as in, suddenly this was half off. So…
Man, this prop/adventure from the @HPLHS is pretty.
A shame I can’t justify buying it. Maybe if I was running a game at a con, I could get away with getting it for that, but otherwise…
If you pre-ordered the @HPLHS’s THE SHUNNED HOUSE DART, it’s available for download.
The physical version is going to be sent out next week, but you can download THE SHUNNED HOUSE now if you preordered. I don’t think it’s available for actual purchase yet, but it’ll probably be ready soon. I’m listening to it right now; it’s up to the HPLHS’s usual high technical standards.
New HPLHS DART for Pre-Order: THE SHUNNED HOUSE.
I’m surprised the HPLHS haven’t done THE SHUNNED HOUSE yet, actually. It’s one of Lovecraft’s most gameable stories, which means that the props are going to be particularly handy. Comes out in June, hopefully!
RPG Supplement of the Week: The Discovery of Fragments of Kitab Al-Azif at Harran (Miskatonic University Press, 1920).
There are many, many fine products that come out of the HPL Historical Society, from their Dark Adventure Radio Theater audio plays to their physical props (I rather badly want their Innsmouth scrimshaw shark-tooth). But what I really like are their scholarly monographs. They’re written in an academic but lively style, and as if they were in the actual world of the Mythos.
The latest one — The Discovery of Fragments of Kitab Al-Azif at Harran — is I think of particular interest, as it would take a gamemaster roughly half an hour to construct a full-fledged adventure, based on nothing but what was in the pamphlet. All you’d really need is your favorite monster from the game, and you’re good to go. There’s even an easily-detachable game prop, with a helpful colored map on the other side!
‘It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Fishmen.’
Got my @HPLHS Eldritch Elf from @MariahLStudios!
It’s very cool. An Elder Thing from Mountains of Madness, and a burned-wood Solstice ornament that goes up on the tree (once I get around to putting the tree up). You can find more of Mariah’s stuff at MariahLStudios.com. Check her out!

PS: I will admit: all I did was get my Eldritch Elf a set of four tentacle pint glasses from the HPLHS Store. I mean, I don’t regret doing it: something like that is firmly in the ‘I want some, but I’m never gonna buy them for myself,’ category, and that’s a solid gift-giving category. But it ain’t original art.
New @HPLHS DART announced: THE BLACK STONE!
THE BLACK STONE is one of Robert Howard‘s best stories, so I’m happy about that. I’m also happy that the other Howard’s apparently now on the menu, because PIGEONS IN HELL would be perfect for a HPLHS Dark Aventure Radio Theater production. But mostly I’m happy for another DART. I love these. I also have them all, except for MASKS OF NYARLATHOTEP, because I can’t afford it.
You can preorder THE BLACK STONE here.
