Building a horror RPG around a full-time job is no small thing, so no apology needed for a small start. What kind of town is Thorn, and what drew you to horror for it?

So far that what i have for the writing for the town and people, is that it's a weird little town with strange people, who acts like everything going on is normal.

It's more of light horror through most of the game, but I have 2 motivations, the 1985 movie "the stuff" and Cthäat a H.P. Lovecraft-inspired Great Old One, he first appeared in the story "The Plague of St. James Infirmary". But also other things to, short list, The Blob, Things,  Slther and color out of space.

A town where everyone acts like nothing is wrong is such a good engine for light horror, the unease comes from the people as much as the monster. With The Stuff and The Blob in the mix, is the threat in Thorn something the townsfolk are quietly feeding, or something that’s already inside them?
