World of Darkness highlighted Eric Steele’s The Haunted House of Hermes on October 7 as part of Month of Darkness. The Storytellers Vault community scenario offers a Halloween-ready one-shot for Mage: The Ascension, designed for three to five hours of play. The investigation takes a cabal into a cursed Hermetic sanctum

whose masters have disappeared. A once-powerful Node and experiments concerning the Umbra form the setting for its mystery and supernatural threat. The official spotlight identifies new Qlippothic rotes and an antagonist shaped by broken paradigms among its contents. This is a timely recommendation from the game’s

official channel; it does not establish a new publication date for the community supplement. Read the official source. Image: World of Darkness / Paradox Interactive / Eric Steele; official Day 7 promotional artwork.
