Gather round, family… In the mountains of central Appalachia, blood runs as deep as these hollers and just as dark. Since before our kind wandered into these hills, hearts of unknowable hunger and madness have slumbered beneath them. These are the oldest mountains in the world. How dare we think we can break the skin of a god and dig out its heart without also calling blood and darkness?
The Old Gods of Appalachia Roleplaying Game delves into the Alternate Appalachia of the award-winning, ultra-popular horror podcast. This world’s unique take on cosmic horror is personal and intimate and heavily steeped in atmosphere—and the RPG gives you everything you need to run immersive, narrative, and deeply chilling games.
