The game began on the night of Saturday, December 31, 1898, as the characters met each other at a masquerade ball.[1] They worked together to investigate the mysterious Baltimore mansion called Moldavia.[2] After defeating the mad Roderick Usher, they were taken to a safehouse by where they stayed overnight.[3]
