Alien entities known as Ancient Ones lurk in the emptiness beyond space and time, writhing at the gates between worlds. These gates have begun to open and must be closed before the Ancient Ones make our world their ruined domination.
Only a handful of investigators stand against the Arkham Horror. Will they Prevail?
The town of Arkham, Massachusetts, is in a panic.
Horrific and bizarre events have begun to occur with increasing frequency — all seeming to point towards some cataclysmic event in the near future that may spell disaster for everyone.
Only one small band of investigators can save Arkham from the Great Old Ones and destruction!
