Book 2: the Misgivings and party members [SPOILERS]

[Sweet_Peppermint_Bleach]

Hello everybody!
So, I am a GM, starting Book 2 with my party of 4 and I am already starting to split the Haunts at Foxglove Manor among the PCs. As they are only four, I am having some problems in getting it right and balanced.
So far this is what I have come up with:

• Festering Haunt: to the Blight Druid, for obvious reasons.
  
• Insane Haunt: to the reckless Rogue who often picks the most dangerous choice.
  
• Vengeful Haunt: to the Inquisitor who wants to avenge a friend fallen to the Brothers of the Seven.
  
• Wrathful Haunt: to the Wizard, as she is the only woman in the group.

Now, the main problem is that the Obsessed and Burning Haunts are left unassigned. The problem with the first one is that Aldern's Obsession was a fighter who he had fallen in love with. The fighter died in Thistletop and was replaced by the inquisitor. As a consequence, Aldern's lust turned to wrath against the PCs who "let his love die without defending her", so the other three. I am not sure if I want three of the four members to get an additional Haunt. At the same time, the Burning Haunt in the Observatory is too dangerous to be affecting all/most of the members of the party at once and might result in a partial TPK.

TL:DR: two unassigned haunts at Foxglove Manor are too dangerous to be made universal.

I was not in the hot seat when we did Book 2, but if you are concerned about potential TPK, have those haunts only affect the first PC into the room.

Or, split the haunts rooms among the party, so that the two Burning rooms target different PC's, etc.

Good luck!

I agree with Roonfizzle. Assign one burning haunt to one character, the other to a different character, and an obsessed haunt to another character. If you have any haunts left over, assign one to the Inquisitor, who has "replaced my love in her traitorous companions' affection".
