Publisher's Description:

Let the Night One In - This is our very first "sweeps week" mystery for Brindlewood Bay. In American television, sweeps week is when TV networks release unusual or stunt episodes of popular TV shows in order to juice ratings. In that spirit, this new type of mystery finds our Murder Mavens involved in cases that have nothing to do with the Midwives conspiracy. They have a more overtly supernatural vibe, and are not necessarily about solving murders. This first sweeps week mystery is by Alicia Furness (who also gave this new type of mystery its name) and features the first appearance of the mysterious author hinted at in the Brindlewood Bay rules, Robin Masterson. Sweeps week mysteries introduce new gameplay elements into Brindlewood Bay, and we think you're going to love them.

My Partner the Ghost - This is an original game by Dan Brown and Sam Zimmerman about a living investigator and their ghostly partner. 1 GM and 2 players will work together to craft and solve a mystery at the table. The Investigator and the Ghost have different abilities, with each being able to access information that the other cannot. As you play, you'll be revealing the history of this pair, as well as determining their connection to the mystery at hand. This game is very easy to get to the table, requiring just a few dice and some index cards, and features a unique Attunement mechanic inside its Powered by the Apocalypse chassis. As a side note, we have a special channel on the Gauntlet Publishing Discord for discussing this game, so if you get a chance to play or have any questions, please let us know over there: https://discord.gg/jxDbMXV

Noble Rot - This is a brand-new Trophy Gold incursion by Jen Stacey. In this extremely dark and ghoulish incursion, you'll be uncovering the dark history of a nobleman's vineyard and shaking loose the ghosts of a very troubled past. Unlike many fantasy dungeons, this one de-emphasizes violence. It's trappings are extremely bleak and gory, but players are encouraged to approach these tortured souls in the vineyard with compassion and gentleness. It's a very special incursion, and if you get a chance to play it, we hope you'll let us know how it goes on the Trophy Discord: https://discord.gg/eFBR2Vg
