The Faces & Places of Arkham
Four Terrifying Adventures        
Fold-Out Players Map

"Behind everything crouched the brooding, festering horror of the ancient town . . . the changeless, legend- haunted city of Arkham, with its clustering gambrel roofs that sway and sag over attics where witches hid from the King's men in the dark, olden days of the Province." "It was always a very bad time in Arkham . . . ." - H.P. Lovecraft

Hamlet of Horror!

Arkham is a small town along the Massachusetts coast - the setting favored by author Howard Phillips Lovecraft in his tales of monstrous horror.

All in all a quiet place, Arkham is best-known as the home of Miskatonic University, an excellent school becoming known for the collection of
esoteric and disturbing volumes residing in its library's restricted collection. These tomes form the foundation of all current efforts to thwart the dire desires of the Mythos legion.

ARKHAM UNVEILED contains extensive background information about this New England town - written to be used by serious investigators as a base from which to further explore the mysteries of the Cthulhu Mythos. Pertinent buildings, useful people, and important locations are described in depth. A 17x22" Players Map of Arkham is bound into the back, and four new, thrilling adventures complete the package. These sinister tales make full use of the background materials and provide the utmost challenge to the players' roleplaying and investigatory skills.

Call of Cthulhu is a roleplaying game based on the works of H.P. Lovecraft, in which ordinary people are confronted by the demonic beings and forces of the Cthulhu Mythos. Players portray investigators of things unknown and unspeakable, decent men and women of the 1920s who unexpectedly learn dreadful secrets. Arkham Unveiled presents background information and a sequence of ready-to-play adventures.
