Beeezelbub Hubbub Teenage Zine Freakout! |  | Congratulations to the first Get Haunted Industries zine scholarship recipient, Paul of Cthulhu. He is a 15-year-old burgeoning writer who is best friends with my son. GHI provided the printing funds, and he did the hard work! The Zine he wrote, Beezelbub Hubbub, is an off the rails fever dream of satanic panic, cyborg vampires, and other gems only a crazy teenager could dream up. He’s got talent.
Right from the kid’s mouth:
Beezelbub has come to Fairhaven! Local children report being taken to Mt. Smoky and witnessing Satanic Rites during Boys and Girls club meetings. The children are unharmed but must undergo hypnosis to remember the events witnessed. Reverend Zebulon Gemstone has taken to his 8 a.m. Public Access spot to disseminate news about the case. His show “Infected with Jesus!” quickly shoots to the top of the charts. Are there truly demons in Fairhaven, or is something more sinister afoot?
Throw some dough this way: | | |

| | A Girl Named Doom
A Middle Grade Fantasy full of heart. |  | New to our Etsy, is the first ever novel released by Ham & Egg Publishing, written by Geo Collazo.
One day, she had a name, a home, and a family.
The next, she had a spellbook, a backpack, and a new name: Doom.
After her quiet village is destroyed and her world torn apart, a young girl is rescued by two orphaned monster hunters. With nothing left but her courage and her father’s old spellbook, she joins them on the road, traveling from town to town in a rickety cart, fighting monsters to survive, and playing music to get by.
But when a mysterious mask appears on a fallen guard, strange whispers spread, and an old bedtime story starts to feel far too real. Doom and her friends are suddenly in way over their heads, caught in a mystery that could threaten more than just one town and tangled in secrets about magic, monsters, and maybe even Doom herself.
Filled with heart, humor, and haunting secrets, A Girl Named Doom is a magical adventure about friendship, bravery, and the stories we carry with us.
Perfect for readers who love a little spooky with their adventure, and stories where kids fight monsters, save towns, and build families from scratch. | | |  | We’re in the home stretch for our campaign and we are a hop, skip and a jump from unlocking our stretch goal!
Once we cross the $3K threshold, we are going to bring Evangeline Gallagher aboard the project to illustrate the cover for the Hardcover Edition of Under the Shadow of the Noon-Day Witch.
Evangeline is a brilliant artist who was hand-picked by Sally Cantirino, co-writer and illustrator of this adventure, to bring the cover to life. You can check out more of their work at the link below.

These backgrounds include the following backgrounds to be used alongside your OSE, Cairn, or other OSR-related games:
Each of these backgrounds include two D6 tables per background to help flesh out their character. For example, the Ruined Noble has the table “What was the cause of your House’s Downfall?” and “What Scrap of Your Inheritance Did You Save?” Great stuff! On top of that, each background will provide recommended character classes to use for these characters. To top it all off, each background is beautifully illustrated by Amanda Lee Franck to really help sell the vibes of the characters. Great Stuff!
I hope to see y’all at ArcaneCon in two weeks! Until Next Time!

This week, we’re not promoting anything of ours. Instead, we’d like to help a cause we believe in and hope you will too.
We’re in the last days to help build the ultimate memorial gaming table for the fans of Dungeons & Dragons. Dedicated to Gary Gygax, the co-creator of the game, in the place where it was written and published, his hometown of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. This Kickstarter, run by Paul Stormberg of the Gygax Memorial Fund, is getting close but still needs some help crossing the finish line. We’ve got until Fri, October 31 at 1:00 PM EDT. Please consider sharing and/or donating anything you can because our industry deserves a monument to its founding and this is such a cool way to do it.
We at Solarian Games would love to see this thing come together, and maybe one day play a game with one of you at the table, with Gary. |

Help gaming legend Rebecca Heinemann fight her cancer |
|
|

|
First-ever videogame champion, legendary programmer, and Interplay co-founder Rebecca Heineman is fundraising to deal with the costs of an aggressive cancer diagnosis. Rebecca became the first national videogame champion in 1980 when she won the Space Invaders tournament in New York. She went on to a storied career in gaming, founding Interplay, the studio that created the legendary video game The Bard’s Tale. Heineman began treatment and diagnostics following PAX West this year, and is set to start chemotherapy for cancer in her lungs and liver. Parts of Heineman’s treatment are covered by insurance, but she is also liable for overwhelming bills from out-of-network treatment. Please help in any way you can. Her GoFundMe link is below. Thank you. | | |
