I ran Call of Cthulhu this past weekend, the first session of an experiment using Silent Hill. The scenario, called Restless Dreams (parts 1-1 through 1-10), can be found here:

Investigators are:

Alan O'Shea (Private Investigator)
Thomas Vanderholdt (Researcher)
Dr. Herbert Loomis (Professor of Archaeology at Boston University) - think Tom Selleck
Michael O'Shea (Reporter for the Kingsport Chronicle)

If anyone is interested, I also video recorded the game, though the sound did not come through very well as I think I have the wrong type of microphone. I'll get a new microphone before I video record again. Here's the link to the first one:

I should (belatedly) mention my weekly gaming group "Epic Fetch". One of our group has been blogging our exploits in both of the currently ongoing campaigns. Feel free to stop on by the site and read some amusing sessions.

It's taken me
too long to get this one written up.

On August 3, I ran a game of
Ravenloft (AD&D 2nd Edition) using the Masque of Red Death setting. The
name of the scenario was Falls Run and the write up can be found here in three
parts:

It's
LONG as we played for over six hours and there was a great deal of great
role-playing. Characters were:

Robert Blair (Soldier/Explorer)
Dr.
Jacob Heintz (Tradesman/Doctor)

The video for the entire game (for which
the write-up is kind of a transcipt) can be found on youtube here:
