the left side <strong>of</strong> his chest. The blanket and covers are stuck<br />

together and make a wet parting sound when they are<br />

pulled back. The bed is covered with blood and some is<br />

dripping on the floor.<br />

Upon a successful Spot check (DC 10), a bloodstain can<br />

be found on the floor next to the bed. A subsequent<br />

successful Cthulhu Mythos check (DC15) would identify<br />

the pattern as a marred Elder Sign.<br />

A successful Heal check (DC 15) or a Spot check (DC 20)<br />

will reveal that the wound on Elwood’s body is a surgical<br />

incision.<br />

Nurse Todd<br />

Nurse Todd will approach the bed if no one else moves.<br />

She will quickly check Elwood’s pulse and then go for<br />

Doctor Cleave, leaving the party behind.<br />

5. The Doctor Arrives<br />

Doctor Cleave will arrive shortly and examine the body.<br />

He will pronounce it dead at the time he arrives. He will<br />

then ask the party what happened to him. Doctor Cleave<br />

will ask if anyone did any un<strong>of</strong>ficial operations on Elwood.<br />

After the questioning, Dr. Cleave will insist that the<br />

investigators return to the lobby to wait for Sheriff Carter.<br />

Dr. Cleave will remain behind.<br />

Nurse Todd<br />

Nurse Todd will have called Sheriff Carter.<br />

Second Sighting<br />

As the group leaves Room 10, each one should make a<br />

Spot check (DC 15). Those passing the test will see the<br />

Ghost enter Room 9.<br />

6. Meet the Sheriff<br />

Sheriff Carter will arrive in about 20 minutes. He will be<br />

greatly put out for being called at this time <strong>of</strong> the morning.<br />

He dressed in a hurry and did not have a chance to tuck in<br />

his shirt.<br />

Sheriff Carter will question the party members about what<br />

has happened. Though he sounds like a dimwitted oaf, the<br />

Sheriff is quite bright, and good at his job. He is not overly<br />

suspicious <strong>of</strong> the party; people die in hospitals all the time.<br />

However, he will be wary if anyone tries to pull a fast one.<br />

During the questioning, Dr. Cleave will enter the lobby.<br />

The First Real Clue<br />

After questioning the investigators, Sheriff Carter will<br />

question Nurse Todd. Nurse Todd will reveal that the<br />

wound on Elwood’s body looks exactly like that on Elvis<br />

Green’s body.<br />

Have the players make a Spot check (DC 20). A success<br />

will mean that the player sees a quick reaction on Dr.<br />

Cleave’s face. Doctor Cleave will go to his <strong>of</strong>fice, to work<br />

on papers. He will actually be making an entry in his<br />

journal.<br />

7. Meet Enrique<br />

After the questioning and any investigation that the<br />

players want to do, Enrique will come running into the<br />

room. He will be out <strong>of</strong> breath and almost hysterical.<br />

Nurse Todd will fetch Doctor Cleave.<br />

Between gasps and sobs, Enrique will describe seeing the<br />

Ghost enter Room 4. The figure looked familiar to Enrique,<br />

so he followed it into the room. He found Mrs. Dahl dead<br />

in the same manner as Elwood.<br />

Questioning Enrique<br />

If questioned, Enrique will be able to describe the figure<br />

well enough that Nurse Todd, Dr. Cleave, or Sheriff Carter<br />

will recognize it as Elvis Green.<br />

Nurse Todd, Sheriff Carter, and Dr. Cleave will run to<br />

Room 4.<br />

Room 4<br />

Mrs. Dahl is lying on the bed, with the woolen blanket<br />

pulled up to her shoulders. Her face is ashen and has a<br />

horrible grimace on it. Pulling back the covers will reveal<br />

that she has quickly bled to death from a small incision on<br />

the left side <strong>of</strong> his chest. The blanket and covers are stuck<br />

together and make a wet parting sound when they are<br />

pulled back. The bed is covered with blood and some is<br />

dripping on the floor.<br />

Upon a successful Spot check (DC 10), a bloodstain can<br />

be found on the floor next to the bed. A subsequent<br />

successful Cthulhu Mythos check (DC15) would identify<br />

the pattern as a marred Elder Sign.<br />

A successful Heal check (DC 15) or a Spot check (DC 20)<br />

will reveal that the wound on Mrs. Dahl’s body is a surgical<br />

incision.<br />

Aftermath<br />

Resolution<br />

If Dr. Cleave fails his Sanity check, he will return to his<br />

<strong>of</strong>fice and kill himself.<br />

Nurse Todd will follow the Doctor and will find his body.<br />

This will cause her to confess. Sheriff Carter will then<br />

arrest Nurse Todd for accessory to murder.<br />

If the party dispatches the ghost, Nurse Todd will confess<br />

to them what she knows. Sheriff Carter will arrest Nurse<br />

Todd and Dr. Cleave.<br />

Experience and Sanity Awards<br />

If the investigators manage to uncover the<br />

evidence <strong>of</strong> Dr. Cleave’s crime and turn it over<br />

to Sheriff Cleave before Dr. Cleave commits<br />

suicide, they will score 1,000 XPS.<br />

If the investigators dispatch the Ghost and/or<br />

uncover the evidence <strong>of</strong> Dr. Cleave’s crime,<br />

they will score 750 XPS.<br />
