Group Type: Online only (voice on Discord, gameplay on Foundry VTT)

Experience: All levels welcome — new players, veterans, or anyone curious about surreal horror one-shots

Timezone: EST (players from EST preferred for scheduling ease)

Schedule: Tuesday, October 21, 7:30 PM EST (One-Shot, potential two-parter if the group vibes)

Software Needed: Discord for voice, browser access to Foundry VTT (no download required)

Vacancies: 2 player spots open

Campaign Type: One-shot, Third party horror module.

Game Style:

• Story-first, immersive gameplay

• Narrative-driven horror, dark comedy, and emotional weirdness

• Theater of the mind + light mechanics; puzzle and interaction-focused

• No PvP, no hack-and-slash, no min-maxing—this is a roleplay-driven story, not a combat dungeon

Premise:

You're not adventurers. You're clowns. Washed-up, bitter, and mostly forgotten.

Until tonight.

You wander into a quiet, fog-drenched village... and stumble across a pulsing carnival attraction no one remembers being there. A neon sign flickers over the square:

HAPPY JACK’S FUNHOUSE – ONE NIGHT ONLY
FREE ADMISSION FOR CLOWNS

You’ve never heard of Happy Jack.
But somehow, the Funhouse seems to know you.

Player Preferences:

I’m looking for players who:

• Enjoy immersive roleplay and unusual storytelling

• Are comfortable with mature themes, surrealism, and psychological tension

• Can collaborate respectfully and creatively in a horror-forward environment

• Want to build character moments, not just roll dice

Whether you're brand new or a seasoned player, you’re welcome—this is a character-driven horror experience, not a mechanics-heavy dungeon crawl.

Recording Notice & Consent Form:

This session will be recorded for creative content (clips, highlight reels, etc.).
A brief content consent form is required for all players. It outlines how recordings may be used and ensures mutual respect and transparency.

About the DM:
