FERTILE GROUND: a hunt for Bump in the Dark

Two nights ago, a University of Ontonagon frat hosted a bonfire party in the woods. Freshman Mariana Santos hasn’t been seen since. As the search for her begins, authorities make a disturbing discovery near the site of the party, a message written in gore on the trunk of an old-growth tree: 

I AM REBORN.

In this hunt for Jex Thomas's Bump in the Dark, play to find out what dangerous cults call these woods sacred, what chthonic monstrosities lurk deep in the soil, what bloody claim the fae have staked on the pines, and more. 

You’ll receive a double-sided trifold pdf—complete with a hook, countdown clock, complications, clues, and NPCs mundane and supernatural—to help you bring forth the hunt’s bountiful horrors.
