Like [[The Coven of Cannich]], there is a very contrived plot hook to get the investigators from Scotland to California. It's not obvious from the players' point of view why they should travel to the other side of the world. Unlike the Keeper, they have no idea that a powerful magic item is buried under a movie set. | Like [[The Coven of Cannich]], there is a very contrived plot hook to get the investigators from Scotland to California.

It's not obvious from the players' point of view why they should travel to the other side of the world. Unlike the Keeper, they have no idea that a powerful magic item is buried under a movie set.
