"The eyes are also the place you have to target if you want to stick a fork into someone's brain", adds Professor Putnam.

By the way fellows, I've been reading "Best Ghost Stories of Algernon Blackwood". He's great! I can see where Lovecraft got some of his inspiration from. I particularly liked 'The Willows' and 'The Wendigo'.

"Oh, Oh! My feet of fire!"

The Wenigo is a classic. I love the part where Defago's naked feet are stuck outside the tent--is there a monster?--and he began to cry. HoneyDog, there are so many good ones, he wrote a lot, but beware, some are tough reading.

Isadora steps inside the house and instantly notices that the wallpapers weren't designed by a hip Theosophist artist.

"There is an evil presence here," she cries out and runs to the phone booth to call her interior designer.
"We need lots of turquoise to exorcise this foul spirit!!"

Spoiler:

The Theosophist interior designer arrives in a turquoise automobile. She is clad from head to toe in turquoise. Without saying a word, she takes her turquoise designing pencil and jams it into Norman’s eye, deep into his brain.

“Oh dear” thinks Isadora, as blood spatters her exquisite turquoise dress. “Perhaps turquoise isn’t such a good colour after all”.

Had a busy weekend! I'll post tomorrow!

[evil_scientist]

I will be travelling the next two weeks!

I will have internet access from time to time, so I think I can probably post every other day?

[HoneyDog]

Fine! Have a good time on your travels. Hope you're going somewhere nice.

I think soon we'll begin to unravel the awful truth behind the haunting...

What do you get if you critically fail a "Library Use" roll? Do you topple a shelf?

[HoneyDog]

You slam your fingers in the filing cabinet - take 2 hit points damage.

[evil_scientist]

Sorry for the delay! I will post tonight!

[Tabs]

No problem.

[evil_scientist]

Happy New Year, folks!

[HoneyDog]

Yes! Happy New Year! Happy Hauntings!

[evil_scientist]

I'm still travelling, and until 7 January I have limited internet access (although I'll try to write some posts!). After that - back to my usual daily posting schedule!

My favorite part about this photo is the little hourglass!!

[Tabs]

I hadn't even noticed.

[HoneyDog]

All the clippings and reports have been found now, so you can decide how to proceed according to the evidence you've collected.

[evil_scientist]

I propose we don't play out the visit to the University and the Prof. in-game, unless Norman has something special to do there. Tabs?

[Tabs]

Agreed. But let's find the church; I've got a feeling that there may be something...
