Contents
There remains, in the state of Massachusetts, a group of communities nestled along the banks of the Miskatonic River. Those who live there soon learn to accept that their region is a place of long shadows, old legends, and deep mystery. Best not to dwell on it, better to focus on the day-to-day struggles of life. Everything is fine, isn't it? However, the truth is that in the historic university city of Arkham, in the misty seaside resort of Kingsport, in the depressed farming community of Foxfield, and in the decrepit squalor of Innsmouth, things are far from fine.
Welcome to More Adventures in Arkham Country. Within you will find a collection of six scenarios for Call of Cthulhu. "Shades of Tomorrow Lost" and "Ghost of Florentina" take investigators to Kingsport where they encounter threats from the past, and possibly the future. We return to Foxfield to look into the mystery of "The Crystal Cavern." On the road the investigators may experience "Engine Trouble." "Spare the Rod" and "The Hopeful" take the investigators to Arkham, and possibly Innsmouth, as they struggle to bring horrific legacies to a close.
Miskatonic River Press is very proud to present one of the authors featured in the original Adventures in Arkham Country, Scott David Aniolowski (Malleus Monstrorum, Ramsey Campbell's Goatswood) with his first published scenario in fifteen years! Welcome back to Arkham Country.

More Adventures in Arkham Country
"The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island in the midst of black seas of infinity and it was not meant that we should voyage far. Some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age." -- H.P. Lovecraft
