I hope this is the right place for this possible adventure, which is part of the Lamentations of the Flame Princess role playing game:
LotFP's role-playing activities were conceived under the dread gloom of Finnish winter and consummated during the darkless summer by a displaced American on a steady diet of Jules Verne, Edgar Allan Poe, HG Wells, HP Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, Robert E. Howard, Hammer Horror, Dario Argento, the New Wave of British Heavy Metal and the traditional Nordic doom metal scene, filtered through over a quarter of a century of gaming experience. Through use of forbidden rites and mystical incantations remembered in fevered dreams, LotFP founder James Edward Raggi IV seeks to recreate the past by remolding the present and conquering the future.
Although part of the Old School Renaissance, it is not LotFP's goal to recreate the old feeling with our books, either in look or content. Playing classic games is not an exercise in nostalgia or a longing for a different time - these games are vibrant and alive and continue to provide true gaming excitement today, and on their own terms. LotFP's game offerings treat these games with the respect they deserve while giving their referees and players innovative and fresh material for those games.
Lamentations of the Flame Princess presents Pyre by Richard Pett, illustrated by Michael Syrigos
The screams of a trio of convicted witches slowly dying echo through the valleys of the holy town of Mourncrag, nestling on the high edges of the GreatWood.
The Most High and Pure Brother casts holy water upon the embers as the sickness of lust drifts away in ashes, the turmoil over, the curse of flesh lifted.
But the burning will do no good.
This killer lurks in the monk’s dreams.
And in the bones of the town itself....
The adventure is pledge based, and you can find more information here
There are 19 other proposed adventures including the Unbegotten Citadel by Monte Cook.
Any support will be happily received and turned into seething unpleasantness.

A related interview at Jennisodes. If anyone was wondering what Mr Pett is afraid of, it is revealed towards the end.
I'm also part of the project, with my ode to The Birds, Red in Beak and Claw. Jennifer Steen is interviewing me in a couple of hours. Nervous!
