The Illusion Horror & Con

More KULT news!

Greetings, slumbering gods. Hope all is well on your side of the veil after the events of this KULTmas. Speaking of which, have you read/run ‘Til Death Do Us Part? If so, feel free to share your thoughts. If you haven’t, you may grab it from https://bit.ly/kultmas along with previous releases.
‎ ‎
Now, as a quick update, we wanted to let you know that we’re working to launch the campaign by the end of this month, or early February. Right now there is no pre-launch page to sign up, but there will be one soon enough. If you have backed previous campaigns (Core Rules or Horror Guide), you will get an update there as well when the next campaign goes live… so you may turn on email notifications from them to make sure you’re not going to miss it.
‎
And while we’re at it, here’s a sneak peek. These are two of the many paintings Anton Semonov has done for the upcoming books.
‎
See you in the next update!

Xmas Release!

Death is an illusion some of us may tear asunder in moments of great distress. For this KULTmas we bring you one of such stories—that of a man who has for his entire life repressed the memories of a past event, but now must face the consequences that follow them. For better or worse, he isn’t alone in this. His siblings, each of them burdened by their own dark secrets, come together to unveil the mysteries that haunt their family. Perhaps together they are able to walk past the threshold of mortality. Or it might just be that they succumb to their tormentors.
‎
‘Til Death Do Us Part is a scenario originally written by Gunilla Jonsson and Michael Petersen for the first edition of KULT exclusively in Swedish, but now brought to KULT: Divinity Lost in English with the help of Jens Klot (translator), Nick Rankovic (author; rules revisions, edits, and additional material), and Jacqueline Bryk (editor).
‎
You may download this and past KULTmas releases on https://bit.ly/kultmas — and, as tradition demands, you may always listen to our friends from Red Moon playing the scenario.
‎
Kultists, we hope all is well on your side of the veil and wish you a good end of the year. May these times be joyous and—if you run ‘Til Death Do Us Part—terrifying and enlightening!
‎
We will take a short break in the coming days as well, but our Herald will continue to be present on Discord servers. Feel free to join him and many other stray souls there. And, if you haven’t yet done this and want to know more about the future sourcebooks, we invite you to watch the Illusion Horror Con panel where we discuss the upcoming Kickstarter.
‎
That is all for now. See you in 2025 for another cycle of the machinery of the Illusion.
‎
Happy holidays!
