It&#8217;s the 1920s and people around the town are disappearing, going insane, and getting not\u00a0just murdered &#8212; dismembered. A few town members are resolved to find out what&#8217;s going on and put a stop to it.\r\n\r\nBased on the lore of H. P.

If you&#8217;re not able to close all of the portals in time, you go face-to-face against one of the Ancient Ones&#8230; and there&#8217;s a good chance you just lose right away because they&#8217;re THE ANCIENT ONES! And they&#8217;ll make you lose your mind! Or devour you. Or worse.\r\n\r\nCouple the game with this contemporary silent film based on another classic from H. P.
