August 25, 1928: Providence, Rhode Island.
The Milton hotel invites you to see the fantastic travel exhibition "The Kingdom of Fire - Egypt's 18th Dynasty." Coming all the way from the British Museum in London, England - come and see these wonders from ancient Egypt, rare and priceless items from a long time ago.
Learn all about their history from Dr. Caitlin Bronson, the exhibition's curator, who will be ready to answer all your questions.
Be enchanted by the treasures of Tutankhamun and Hatshepsut - along with the exhibition's absolute star - the mysterious canopic jar from Ibnhotep the Mad! Tickets are selling fast, and you won't want to miss what will be the most talked-about exhibition of the year!
With such an invitation, how can your investigators say no? Whether they are historians, academics, or even black market runners, this is a unique opportunity to learn the secrets of the distant past outside a museum. And what could possibly go wrong by looking at the relics of someone known as “Ibnhotep the Mad”?
The Shadow Over Providence is a new Call of Cthulhu scenario set in an environment that might seem familiar to those who have visited the iconic Biltmore Hotel. The adventure is written by Jon Hook, from the Miskatonic University Podcast - and developed and published by Chaosium, to celebrate NecronomiCon 2019.
