They Hate That

They Hate That

You're cautiously making your way through the shadows and gloom of the Misspelled Cemetary when a tombstone catches your eye. Most of them are pretty scratched up, but the marks on this one look more regular than usual. After a moment, you realize they must be hobo glyphs!

You flip open your binder and set to work translating them. After a little research and thought, you think they say "Not a good place to camp, and don't let them catch you marking up their tombstargh!"

You add some notes to your binder.

Occurs at The Unquiet Garves.

References

• The name of this adventure references a line from the 1984 movie Ghostbusters, specifically during Dr. Peter Venkmann's first visit to Dana Barrett's apartment. He trills the highest keys on Dana's piano a few times, ostensibly to annoy any ghosts into showing themselves: "They hate that."
• "Tombstargh!" could be a reference to a scene from the movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail in which an inscription refers to "the Castle of Aaauuuggghhh...", with one character suggesting that the writer had died while carving the text.
