It's been a long-standing tradition among certain of the more august members of the Esoteric Order to do up a big horror gaming extravaganza around Halloween every year. Since time immemorial, this event has been referred to as the "Call-of-Cthulhu-a-thon"...even if no actual CoC is run that day.
Last year, we did one big six-hour scenario. This year we decided to go for the "rock festival" approach and offer several smaller scenarios over the course of a day and let folks filter in and out as the mood struck them.
The third and final scenario, run by David S., is a homebrew for World of Darkness: Innocents based on a nightmare he had recently.
Fair warning: the fact that this came at the end of a long day of tense horror gaming and near-constant junk food snacking, along with all of us getting into the characters of playing 12-year-olds, made for some pretty punchy gameplay. Still and all, lots of creeptastic fun was to be had. Enjoy!

The second scenario, run by David L. and originally written for Call of Cthulhu, was run using the Achtung Cthulhu rules and features a fun little romp in which all the PCs are Nazis... Enjoy!

[Pendragon] The Great Pendragon Campaign: Year 518 - The Battle of Badon Hill
In this special super-sized episode, the greatest of Salisbury's knights march to war under King Arthur's banner against an old, implaccable foe...
"From that time, the citizens were sometimes victorious, sometimes the enemy, in order that the Lord, according to His wont, might try in this nation the Israel of to-day, whether it loves Him or not. This continued up to the year of the siege of Badon Hill, and of almost the last great slaughter inflicted upon the rascally crew." - Gildas

The source of all our giggling about "ch'arki" towards the end of the session can be found at this link, home to a pretentiously "artisanal" brand of beef jerky I was ranting about before the session recording started.
