Adventure, Mystery, & Horror in the 1890s
What's Inside
Cthulhu by Gaslight takes the Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game to the fog-shrouded streets of Great Britain and beyond.
A New Setting
The 1880s—Victorian England. Mystery and adventure in fog-shrouded streets and alleyways. Secret cabals commit grisly murder, wicked crimes, and pledge to bring about the ruin of civilization—all within the square mile of the City of London.
The Complete Rules
Cthulhu by Gaslight is a stand-alone game, and contains the complete rules for the Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game, including character creation. You do not need a copy of the Call of Cthulhu: Keeper Rulebook or Call of Cthulhu: Starter Set to play. The Cthulhu by Gaslight: Investigators’ Guide can be enhanced with the Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game as well as the Pulp Cthulhu supplement, both available separately.
Everything You Need
A complete list of weapons and equipment appropriate for the Gaslight-period. Rules for exploring in the 1890s, and extensive information on Fringe Science and the Occult practices of the time. The book also includes 10 pre-generated Cthulhu by Gaslight Investigators.

What The Critics Say
-
“The new Gaslight supplement is a beautiful book, filled with exhaustive research that's fully applicable to playing Call of Cthulhu in this setting… I love how they've expanded the game to involve characters from all classes of society; games can be like Dickens novels! Good show, Chaosium, good show!”
— Sean Branney, H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society.
