Crimson Skies: The Mystery of the Missing Swan by Daniel Adams
Anchorage, Alsaka, 1937. The city reeks of booze, diesel, and bellicose Russians. Which makes it like home for the sky pirates that prowl Canada, North America, and the Pacific, much like you and the Black Swans. You stagger back from last night to the tower where your zeppelin, the Huntress, is docked. As you clamber aboard, Vitaly, the squadron’s head mechanic, wears a worried frown. It seems the skipper, the feared and enigmatic Black Swan herself, never came home last night. Looks like it’s time to gather the others. She is always home first.

Never Land by KB
In the Occult Underground, myths can have a basis in reality. For example, J.M. Barrie’s eternal child, who refused to grow up, and was surrounded by children who had ‘fallen through the cracks’ and remembered nothing of their former lives. Now… who says the children weren’t pulled in through the cracks? And who says they didn’t have family who cared for them and followed after? And, finally, what sort of mind would someone who’s never grown up have? Questions Barrie didn’t answer, but that are being answered for us now.

Supernatural: Family Ties – Shadows in the Dark by Dudley Martin
Enfield, Illinois is a small, quiet Midwestern village. Well usually quiet. Quiet, if you ignore the strange lights and sounds at night, the strange things lurking in the woods and fields around the village and the legends that link this part of Illinois to the Devil. But the residents of Enfield are used to such happenings and take them in stride, as any good bible-reading, god-fearing folks will do. They named the locations of activity so as to avoid them. They locked their doors, barred their windows and kept inside after dark. This worked up until last week, when Enfield went dark and no communication has come out of the village since. Bobby Singer has asked you to investigate and find out what happened. Gas up the RV, load your weapons and get ready! Enfield awaits!
