I share my review of the Hudson & Brand horror adventure Nightmare on the Necropolis Express from Stygian Fox. The tale is designed for Call of Cthulhu and Cthulhu by Gaslight, set during the Victorian Era.
Summary
Keepers and players should have fun with Nightmare on the Necropolis Express. I especially appreciate the author tying in real history of the Necropolis Railway and Brookwood cemetery into the adventure. Personally, I might extend the tale with a few other encounters seeing the adventure is relatively short.
