Running this was alot of fun. Both my players and myself had a blast; the characters, the clues, it was a thoroughly entertaining and hilarious module. My only gripe is that the combat encounter is a joke as written. Level 7 characters against a couple of npcs that are essentially mediocre level 5 characters and a few skeletons is kind of a joke. A couple of half-assed aoes and its over. Which would kind of ruin the whole bit of the crystal bouncing around and the bad guys eventually trying to escape. Other than that though, absolutely fantastic.

Love this! It was helpful to watch the PAX video to see what they did in the original. This is a really good adaptation and I have enjoyed playing it with a few different groups.

My players adored this. We didn't get much actual investigating done, but the twists and turns during battle really thrilled 'em. I wound up adjusting the CR way up, but we all still had fun.

I'd totally recommend this for Halloween one-shots or as part of a spooky scary silly campaign.

I really enjoyed this one even though my party wound up going straight murder hobo! Was fun to set up and play out the various NPCs that were sprinkled in and the overall design of the story.

Fantastic little module. Full of charming--sometimes hysterical--details and some very amusing NPCs. Good for use with a party that loves role play and exploration more than combat. Will definitely be reusing this one-shot at other tables.

This was the first game I ever DMed, and it went great! Things ended differently than I expected though. The little servant boy (I gave him a missing tooth because I though it was cute) ended up way cuter and softer and adorable than anyone would've intended. Through roleplay and carefully worded questions, we eventually found out (I hadn't planned this, it just happened) that the boy was being abused by the quirky old man who threw this murder mystery.

I'm definitely happy beyond belief at how it turned out!

I chose this for my first time as a DM and it was an excellent choice. Memorble NPCs that were a joy to play. It was just enough information to get me going and left some wiggle room for me to embelish. My group absolutely loved it!
