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 />
