Haunts – Ghost Smashing in the 1990's

Bureau 13 Casebook 2

Stalking the Night Fantastic

Horror RPG

by Richard Tucholka

Tri Tac Inc.

1984

This is Haunts, the second Casebook supplement in the Stalking the Night Fantastic horror role-playing game line from Tri Tac Inc.

Published in 1984 and written by Tri Tac founder Richard Tucholka, this early horror RPG expansion is fully compatible with both:

• Stalking the Night Fantastic
• Bureau 13 (Tri Tac system)

The Casebook #2 (TTS #3020), is a spiral-bound softcover edition. Haunts expands the Bureau 13 universe with new ghost-hunting adventures, paranormal encounters, and a unique ghost generation system for Game Masters. Rather than focusing on a single storyline, this supplement provides multiple adventures along with tools for creating original supernatural investigations. It represents one of the earliest RPG products devoted specifically to modern paranormal investigation. 

Players portray agents of Bureau 13 investigating:

• Ghosts and hauntings
• Malevolent spirits
• Psychic manifestations
• Temporal anomalies
• Supernatural evil
• Haunted houses and cursed locations

From the back cover;

"Ghost Hunt. Down dark and shuttered halls roam the spirits and inhuman evil of the night. Behind them are the hunters of the paranormal, the agents of Bureau 13 who are Stalking the Night Fantastic.

Haunts is the second Stalking the Night Fantastic supplement filled with adventures and new game information to expand your existing campaign. This module requires the use of the RPG Stalking the Night Fantastic.

Evil is waiting for you!"

Inside are seven adventures, a complete Haunt Generation system, expanded equipment, new Friends and Enemies, vehicles, weapons, utility sheets, and extensive information for Game Masters wishing to create their own ghost-hunting campaigns. 

Tri Tac Inc. was founded in the late 1970s by Richard Tucholka, a prolific and highly imaginative independent game designer. Tri Tac was one of the earliest small-press RPG publishers operating outside of TSR's Dungeons & Dragons circle. Tri Tac titles include Bureau 13, FTL: 2448, Fringeworthy, Incursion, and others—all highly regarded among collectors of early independent role-playing games. Stalking the Night Fantastic was among the first tabletop RPGs centered on paranormal investigations, predating many later horror investigation systems.
