This adventure is a very interesting offering. It manages to make a good mystery plot in a small space, and yet contains a reasonable amount of violence. It has interaction with memorable NPCs and an event system that does a good job of driving toward a conclusion. It very efficiently draws upon themes of death, justice and horror.

Two thumbs up, highly recommended. Should work well to start off a mystery/horror campaign.

I'll admit that my expectations were rather low, mostly because I've never seen the "bad circus" theme done well through 15 years of playing the game. However, I was very pleasantly surprised by this adventure. This is due to a grounding of the events in the community Falcon's Hollow, and a lot of focus on the atmosphere of the events. Not having played it yet, I suspect that it is rather short, which is not necessarily a weakness. It is original, but there are elements in it that some might find too macabre, or a bit anachronistic, perhaps. All in all, well recommended.
