This is a great movie, felt like you were watching an old movie from the '30s or '40s, Another great job from HPLHS just like the radio programs. I highly recommend this movie. The only thing that would have made it better is offering the movie in a color version too. Please HPLHS make more movies to!
I've only had a chance to leaf through it so far, but it is gorgeous. I can't wait to read all of the scholarship!
Recently purchased this amazing prop set, the quality and attention to detail is outstanding adding even more immersion to this epic campaign.
Thank you so much for great customer service and speedy delivery service, everything arrived safely.

Awesome
Trust me, I'm a cultist. I love the HPL genre. If you are even here reading this, you could do worse than purchase this useful set if items. If you simply love the stories, the booklet and postcard photos will add to your mental picture. Oh, and the map. If you care about the man himself, then those items (and the map) will help your understanding. If you roleplay and, like me, like characters in depth, with wallets and pockets full of period bits like tourist guides, bus tickets, wallets and so on, this set will help. Oh, and the map, too.
I would buy this set just for the map, and then look at the other bits and celebrate the bonus. But the period map - which appears, much smaller, in "Night Black Deeds" - is a treasure. Maybe for historic, or nostalgic reasons, but some of us, whether planning an RPG or toying with a story idea set in the town, will love the detail of knowing lot numbers and locations of key buildings. I swear, an image search for "Providence 1930" could lead to a whole project, creating "Google Street View 1930", using this map.
To put it more succintly - this set is worth owning. It's fun, and it's fascinating.
I bought this set a s a gift for my Dad, he bought the original when he was just a bit younger then me, and I run the game all the time so I thought it'd be a nice surprise. Both of us are just blown away by the quality of everything, there's so much there! Of course I got it along with the props to complete the experience and I highly recommend doing the same if you're considering it.
The only gripe I have is that, since I want my father to keep the box set over at his house for display, I need to buy pdfs of the included campaigns and scenarios as they don't come with this set, that's a bit of a bummer.
