NEW CAMPAIGN BEGINNING OCTOBER 15!

Build your character. Work with your team. Use creative problem solving to overcome obstacles and enemies in this roleplaying adventure game!

This 6-week campaign takes place in a haunted land of ghosts and ghouls and all sorts of spooky frights! It will run from October 15-November 19.

Registration is required to attend. Please plan to come all 6 weeks if possible so you can get the full story of our ongoing campaign!
