A brief glimpse of how my brain works: Universal Of Darkness

Black Chantry revealed the art for a VTES character card and the near black and white palette, the look, the stare and the outfit reminded me of Boris Karloff in the 1932 version of The Mummy. And since the 2017 version of The Mummy was meant to launch the Dark Universe updating the Universal monsters for the present, I wondered about the reverse, a World Of Darkness type game about various monsters in the 1930s.

I’ve set WoD and CofD games in the 30s and 40s before, but leaning on the hardboiled and noir traditions rather than the horror of the time...
