@ChaskaTheMagicDog My favorite horror TTRPGs:
Trophy Dark (Jesse Ross)
Bluebeard's Bride (W. Beltrán, S. Doom & M. Kelley)
Public Access (Jason Cordova)
Quietus (Oli Jeffrey)
Mothership (Tuesday Knight Games)
Cthulhu Dark (Graeme Walmsley)
The only RPG I've run that has legitimately scared my players was *Bluebeard's Bride*. It's one fantastic game, but it deals specifically with sensitive subjects.

I played in an AMAZING game of "The Between" earlier today at #MagpieGames monthly Community Play Day.
The Between is a narrative-focused #TTRPG by Jason Cordova about a group of mysterious monster-hunters in Victorian London. Published by #GauntletRPG.
My character was "Wild" Rose Larabee [The American], a pistol-packing, monster-hunting cowgirl from Wyoming with a mysterious past and a strange curse.
It was a fantastic game!
@ludovic There's been quite a bit of chatter on that vey topic over at the Gauntlet Publishing Discord. The Gauntlet's "Carved From Brindlewood" RPG mystery system serms like a perfect fit!
@Dionysus I can recommend three online #TTRPG communities that have active online games and are lookimg for players.
#GauntletRPG focuses in indie RPGs, story-games and OSR.

#HappyJacksRPG is a podcast and actual play network with an active Discord community.

#MagpieGames is a an RPG publisher with an active Discord and regular game events: some paid, most free.

@eladhen It's in closed playtest at the moment, but #GauntletRPG is getting ready to publish "Arkham Herald", a game of investigative journalists in the 1970s trying to get to the truth behind seemingly supernatural events. Heavy on paranoia.
It's "All the President's Men" meets "Three Days of the Condor" meets "The Call of Cthulhu."
It's Powered by the Apocalypse, and uses the "Carved from Brindlewood" emergent mystery system.
10. Have you played a journaling game?
Sort of. It was "Finding Carcosa" by David Morrison, published in #CodexMagazine issue 41 "Yellow 2" by #GauntletRPG.
I sat down and did exactly one prompt, and never went back. Not because it's a bad game: journaling games just aren't for me.
If I'm going to do solo RPG stuff, I'd rather do game prep for a game I'm running for others, or just do straight-up game design.
@ChaskaTheMagicDog Last online con: Gauntlet Community Open Gaming (GCOG): Sept 2022. It's the #GauntletRPG semiannual online convention. I ran four games: #OSE, #TrophyDark , #Quietus, and "Long Time Listener Last Time Caller." I also played in three games: #CrescendoOfViolence, #PasionDeLasPasiones, and #TheBetweenGhostsofElPaso .
I ran a very fun first session of #CthulhuDark last night on the #GauntletRPG calendar. Our investigators are employees of an antique shop in Providence who specialize in acquiring hard-to-find objects. They've been hired by a librarian at Cornell University to track down a very valuable book stolen from the collection.
He failed to show for the meeting, and they found, his hotel room ransacked with signs of a struggle, and he'd registered under a false name. What does the key they found open?
