The foulest stench is in the air, the funk of forty thousand years, and grisly ghouls from every tomb are closing in to seal your doom…

The spooky season is well under way. You know what that means?

If you’re anything like me, it means the gray skies and rainy weather lead to a lot of games played around the kitchen table with some friends, clattering dice, and horror-themed adventures!

…or around a bonfire.

To get in the mood for the season, we’ve got some tricksy treats to offer. If you haven’t seen the latest Pendrake encounter, it offers a short scenario with a bit of a horror vibe, and you’ll find all sorts of creepy-crawlies, misty moors, and more if you back the Iron Kingdoms: Borderlands and Beyond Kickstarter, which is just about to enter its final week of funding. The Borderlands Survival Guide includes all manner of things that go bump in the night, morning, and all other parts of the day!

…bump.

And if you can’t help but cram all manner of ghouls and ghosts into your Halloween, don’t forget that you’ll have a chance to sit down with our very own John Swinkels at Gamehole Con, running October 21st to 24th. There, you’ll be able to play through our Free RPG Day adventure, Echo in the Darkness, which feeds your heroes into a veritable meat grinder of all things shambling and rotting as you fight to stay alive.

Seats are still available! If you’ll be at the show, sign up here!
