With each new day, another patient at the Willowbrook Sanitarium falls victim to an unseen menace that leaves them practically catatonic. Each night, the survivors become easy prey to a servant of madness who has infiltrated the sanitarium, hoping to gather sufficient tributes for a massive sacrifice-a ceremony that will herald the arrival of an incomprehensible evil to the land. The Duke, a cousin of the king, is caught in the middle, and it will take a band of extraordinary heroes to unravel the webs of deceit, rescue the duke, and lead a band of lunatics to disrupt the cataclysmic event known as The Bleak Harvest. Will you solve the mystery of the Bleak Harvest and save the lives of the inhabitants, or will you be driven mad and become in need of Willowbrook's Sanitarium yourselves, ripe for sacrifice? The Bleak Harvest is a horror-themed adventure for 8th- to 9th-level characters. Written for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game and Fifth Edition Fantasy, this adventure can be dropped into any preexisting campaign with minimal changes required. This module is recommended for mature players as it contains adult situations, mental illness, the possibility of the PCs needing to commit evil acts, and a very real chance players must give up some their characters' control in order to survive. Perfect for use with Horror and Occult source material, as such themes abound.

The government-issued rain stops falling. Strange things are happening to the guards. And it's not long until the inmates are left alone inside the prison.Were the chains that shackled Luka to his cell the only instruments left to keep him safe? In a thrilling shift, he must overcome fellow prisoners hell-bent on killing him, the warden losing her mind, the rabid rats in the train tunnels, and a population turned into murderous monsters to try and break out of The Loop, save his family, and discover who is responsible for the chaos that has been inflicted upon the world.

Download or read book You Will Never Be Forgotten written by Mary South and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2020-03-10 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this provocative, bitingly funny debut collection, people attempt to use technology to escape their uncontrollable feelings of grief or rage or despair, only to reveal their most flawed and human selves An architect draws questionable inspiration from her daughter’s birth defect. A content moderator for “the world’s biggest search engine,” who spends her days culling videos of beheadings and suicides, turns from stalking her rapist online to following him in real life. At a camp for recovering internet trolls, a sensitive misfit goes missing. A wounded mother raises the second incarnation of her child. In You Will Never Be Forgotten, Mary South explores how technology can both collapse our relationships from within and provide opportunities for genuine connection. Formally inventive, darkly absurdist, savagely critical of the increasingly fraught cultural climates we inhabit, these ten stories also find hope in fleeting interactions and moments of tenderness. They reveal our grotesque selfishness and our intense need for love and acceptance, and the psychic pain that either shuts us off or allows us to discover our deepest reaches of empathy. This incendiary debut marks the arrival of a perceptive, idiosyncratic, instantly recognizable voice in fiction—one that could only belong to Mary South.

Download or read book Cheese and Other Stories written by Deryck Whittaker and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2013-11-01 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cheese! The smiley face we accept as a universal sign of happiness belies the twists and downturns of not-quite-everyday life. Through these witty, visceral short stories, Deryck Whittaker takes us on a bittersweet journey across the globe, introducing a set of characters at odds with themselves and the times. In locations as disparate as Norway, Mali and Argentina, the jungle of the art world, the good are generally rewarded, while the boorish and greedy receive their comeuppance.

Throughout Cheese and Other Stories Whittaker’s elegant wordplay and acute observations of the human condition are superb.
