Suggestions for running the adventure?

I'm new to GM'ing and I would greatly appreciate any tips for how to put this campaign together.

You might need to be more specific.

As in how to properly create the dialogue and introduce people/events.

I can't do all of that here, but we do intend to do that on Chronicles: Pathfinder Podcast

We currently have The Haunting of Harrowstone pencilled in for review on either Episode #015 or #016. (We should be releasing Ep #013) very shortly.)

So - give it 2 months or so and we will have 3 to 4 hours of dicsussions and interviews with the designers and developers of The Carrion Crown AP together with practical GM advice based on our actual play through of the module for you to listen to.

Sorry if that's a little further off than you would prefer in terms of "when", but in all of the circumstances, that's the earliest we can review this module on the podcast.

Well, the free player's guide to the AP would be a good start. I haven't read that particular one yet, but it should be like the others, offering not just good advice on race and class choices and giving you some background on the locations the path will be set in, but also provide Campaign Traits, which include character hooks.

Creating the dialogue can be one of the hardest parts of playing these games...and to help you out, I'm going to need some more info from you. Are you new to RPing? Or are you asking because the horror genre is new to you? Basically, where are you coming from with the question.

Introducing people and events...are we talking the PCs? NPCs? For one, read through the adventure completely first...I know it's really tempting to scan through quickly, and then want to start working on how to start it...but you really need to understand the whole book before you think much about starting it. That...and it'll give me time to finish it before I give any specific advice...

Oh don't you worry. :) We'll need your dulcet tones on tape (more accurately, on disk) to make it all happen. But we'll give you lots of warning sir, I promise!
