Description

Get ready to descend into madness with the Vermont Horror Expansion, a fan-created addition to the Arkham Horror series. This unofficial expansion, designed by Hal Eccles, throws players into a world of horror and chaos, inspired by H.P. Lovecraft's 'The Whisperer in Darkness'. Set in the eerie landscape of Vermont, players must navigate the sinister plans of the Mi-go, an alien race intent on exploiting the earth's resources, and inadvertently disturbing ancient seals that hold the Ancient Ones at bay. As the seals are disrupted, the chances of an Old One awakening from its slumber increase, plunging the world into darkness and terror. In this cooperative game, 1 to 8 players will embark on a perilous journey, lasting around 180 minutes, as they try to survive the horrors that lurk in the shadows. With new game concepts, such as a Prequel stage, and a plethora of new content, including a unique Herald, Prequel events, monster markers, encounters, and Mi-go technology, players will need to work together to harness their skills and abilities to save the world from the clutches of madness. Be warned, the rules are complex, and even experienced players will need time to learn them, but the reward is worth the challenge. Will you be able to withstand the horrors that await, or will you succumb to the darkness, forever trapped in a world of terror and despair?
