“If I cannot inspire love, I will cause fear!”
Mary Shelley, Frankenstein
Inspired by Ken Russell’s 1986 film, Gothic, and the historical events of 1816, Avalon Larp Studio brings you the story of a night with Lord Byron, Mary Godwin, Percy Shelley, Claire Clairmont and Dr. Polidori. Five poets trapped in an erotic, psychological horror story, created by their own imagination…
Play first as a poet; write poetry, drink, dance, dream laudanum dreams! Play again as their servant where you will escalate the story and take the lead in creating the horrors that haunt them; you will decide whether to guide your poet towards redemption or reconciliation, or destroy them to save yourself.
The script for Gothic is available from DriveThruRPG
