Description

Published by Chaosium in 1999, Last Rites: Four Present-Day Adventures for Call of Cthulhu is a collection of modern-era scenarios that shift the game’s classic cosmic horror into the late 20th century. Rather than the traditional 1920s setting, these investigations are built around contemporary infrastructure—using cell phones, cars, and modern research methods to confront ancient threats. The book features four standalone adventures: “Lurker in the Library” (a lethal legacy involving a dimensional shambler), “The House on McKinley Boulevard” (a haunted house occupied by dangerous squatters), “The Dig” (an ill-advised archaeological summoning), and “The Noiseless Night” (centering on a cursed book of poetry and a vengeful cult). Designed for the 5.5 Edition ruleset, the collection is known for its “plug-and-play” versatility, offering Keepers high-lethality mysteries that can be easily dropped into an existing campaign or run as gritty, one-shot sessions.
