And it went well!
My players loved it. It was our first CoC game, which I am now probably going to build a campaign from. Good job on the adventure - it spooked them out quite well....
Of course, my players did something a bit different... They grabbed Turner and put him in the trunk of HIS car, because the dilettante who drove them out didn't want blood in his car. So anyway, I started the thumping and had them make Drive Auto rolls -- the guy driving Turner's car failed, hit a deep pothole, and broke the front right tire. The thumping stopped.
The PCs decided that they had had enough and decided to blow up the car. Worked well for me - they sped off and I described to them in the distance that "a large ball of flame ripped into the sky". They considered going back to make sure Turner was dead -- of course, he wasn't.. They hurried on to get home.
So, the cop still pulled them over for the broken taillight. He was very suspicious of them for being covered in blood and gore, which they tried to cover up by saying they "went hunting tonight". I reached a point where the officer had them out of the car and was questioning them, trying to get their IDs... when Turner showed up, walking across the road toward them.
of course, the players nearly wetted themselves, and Turner started doing his thing to Officer Singleton. They managed to put Turner down and save Singleton, but boy, it was quite interesting.
Overall, a great game to play on a Halloween night and get a little spooky.
Thanks,
Nathan
