I share my review of the final chapter to the Season of Ghosts adventure path, To Bloom Below the Web, for the Pathfinder roleplaying game. The adventure wraps the Asian fantasy/horror themed campaign as the village of Willowshore returns to life and the heroes do what they can to ensure its future survival. There’s also plenty of information provided for game masters to continue the tale beyond this conclusion.

Pathfinder To Bloom Beneath the Web Review

SUMMARY

Overall, Season of Ghosts is one of my favorite Pathfinder adventure paths to this point; I found the Asian theme, as well as the creatures of myth and legend, to be really unique and grabbed my imagination. Sorry to say, this finale is the weakest of the four chapters. To Bloom Below the Web is good but not great and even feels a little anticlimactic as the two big bads the characters contend with were also just dealt with in the previous chapter.
