The House of Specters

**The House of Specters** is a quest in *Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones*. For other uses see The House of Spectres (Disambiguation).

## Journal

It seems the killer (or killers) has supernatural roots. I've been told that some kind of shadow beings are committing the murders. Witnesses claim these spectres withdraw to a certain house near the borderland west of Arkham. I've marked this house on my map. Is it finally time to confront them?
I found the house but a mysterious voice at the front door refused me entry. When I told him the Arkham Stabber was inside, he asked me to prove it. I will need to assemble all the evidence and present a complete case when I return. The voice is already growing hostile, and I suspect it would be unwise to test its patience further.
I related everything I discovered to the voice behind the door, and concluded my tale of deduction with the killer's identity the Terrible Old Man. That awful person from the legend turned out to be both the loon I encountered at the Old Eel, AND the owner of the voice at the door!
But is also seems I was wrong about the killer's identity, for it was not the old man himself, but Cheatin' Logan Dawkins and the rest of his spectral crew. The spectres' hatred of the thieves was actually what bound them to this plane, and with Keelan's death they dissipated before my very eyes. The last I saw of the old man, he was walking into the everlasting mists...

*Suddenly a shock jolts your body and you unaccountably find yourself within the crowd. You’re still in Arkham, but it’s… It’s old Arkham! Lifting your head up, you see the leaden skies of Earth. People are in panic, trampling each other to escape.*

*One among them is unaware of your presence and is dashing straight at you. On impulse, you lift your hand as a protective measure, but the woman simply passes right through it. A wave of panic starts to heave in you. What’s this place? Are they the ghost or are you?*

## Fixed Conclusion

*Then the hellish sound of apocalypse comes cracking up the dimensions of reality, penetrating into your mind and soul. To preserve your sanity, you once again hear that sound which was erased from your memory and thereby remember...*

*This is the Black Day! As it’s getting re-enacted, you once again understand that no human trait or merit of yours can ever rescue you from this Hell. The skies above melt away and the whole world is dyed in repulsive colours. People are ripping each other apart.*

*This is ruin, both material and spiritual. The ultimate downfall of humanity.*

*When you find yourself in the lonely and forsaken wilderness, you realise that you’re lying on the ground in fetal position. Your nails have gashed your palms, your jaw won’t open from being clenched tight and you’ve peed yourself.*

 Release date | 2019 September 26

***Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones*** is a video game developed by Cultic Games and published by 1C Entertainment.

***Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones*** is a supernatural horror roleplaying video game which takes place in the strange worlds of Howard Phillips Lovecraft. It's been a year since the awakening of The Great Old Ones and the Earth is dead. Stygian will draw the player into a bleak journey from a ruined Arkham to the very depths of the Abyss.
The gameplay experience promises a mix of rich role-playing and turn based tactical combat in an authentic 2D graphical style reminiscent of 20's illustrations. Stygian is being crafted by designers who have grown up reading Lovecraft and playing Planescape: Torment, first Fallout titles, Heroes of Might and Magic and the likes.
In Stygian, players create their characters from scratch with a robust selection of archetypal backgrounds with different origin stories, attributes, skills, traits and lastly belief systems which determine how characters replenish their lost sanity, also presenting unique dialogue choices.
The narrative of the game is strongly connected to the works of H. P. Lovecraft. In your quest, you'll use the haunted violin of Erich Zann to lure a fiendish deity and convince the poor wretched protagonist of "The Outsider" to join your party among many others.
The heavy burden of fighting a desperate battle with forces beyond recognition will haunt you to the end of the game. Physical combat will be scarce and difficult, spell casting will have deep and dangerous consequences, sanity loss will leave its marks on characters as mental illnesses and sometimes the best solution will be running away from the terrors that lurk in the night.
Stygian embraces the original themes of gothic, pulp and weird fiction, incorporating them into the computer roleplaying genre, promising a fresh (or putrid from another perspective) breath of air for roleplaying fans.

## Game support

Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones Wiki is focused on creating the definitive guide to *Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones*. But while we make an effort to be complete, which may include game bugs and fixes for them, we are not an official game support channel.
