Black Pines: A 5-Session Horror Campaign

A 5e-Compatible Adventure from The Midnight Archive

Some towns are forgotten.

Black Pines is trying not to be.

A quiet logging town sits at the edge of a dense forest, its streets lined with aging buildings and watchful windows. Travelers pass through, but lately… fewer are leaving.

Strange flowers bloom where people vanish.

Voices whisper from a silent radio tower.

And something beneath the forest is beginning to wake.

In Black Pines, your players will investigate a growing mystery that leads from abandoned structures to the depths of the forest itself—where a long-buried secret refuses to stay buried.
