Arkham Horror: The Card Game – Murder at the Excelsior Hotel: Scenario Pack

Investigators arrive at a prestigious hotel after receiving a mysterious summons and quickly become entangled in a grisly murder investigation. A sudden blackout leaves one investigator standing over a stabbed body and unable to recall the events; police suspicion and mounting threats force the team to prove their innocence. Players gather clues, interrogate witnesses, manage limited time and resources, and confront escalating dangers as they reconstruct the night’s events. Designed as a self-contained scenario that can also be inserted into an ongoing campaign, this scenario emphasizes deduction, time pressure, and tense encounters while players work to uncover the truth and avoid wrongful arrest.
