William Bailey’s Haunted Mansion – A Call of Cthulhu Adventure


Access info

William Bailey’s Haunted Mansion

Join the team for an unforgettable theatrical experience at Tales from Rat City’s Call of Cthulhu live play event!

(A live real play event is an interactive theatrical performance where the actors play a roleplaying game, improvising their characters and storyline based on dice rolls and player decisions.)

This unique event features a team of talented actors immersing themselves in a roleplaying game, bringing to life a story set in the turbulent 1890s of Ballarat. With the roll of the dice determining their fate, four investigators, based on the historical figures Detective Thomas Montague, Bella Guerin, Clara Baldwin, and James Curtis, will explore the mysterious events unfolding in mining magnate William Bailey’s Mansion and the dark manipulations of the historic New Lighter cult, led by their enigmatic leader Steven.

Don’t miss your chance to witness this thrilling performance on at Ballarat Town Hall in the Trench Room. Best of all, entry is completely free, booking by Humanitix!

Be sure to secure your ticket through Humanitix and join the team for a night of excitement and adventure.

Supported by GUF, Chaosium, City of Ballarat and hosted by Ballarat Library
