'Trouble at Trollhalsen' Shiver RPG Epic Event Announced!
Prepare yourselves for an unparalleled descent into oceanic horror as Parable Games, in partnership with The Department of Acts, officially announces "Trouble at Trollhalsen," a full-day Shiver RPG epic event. This immersive tabletop role-playing experience invites players to brave the chilling mysteries of a North Sea oil rig.
Nestled in the treacherous waters, Trollhalsen, seemingly a routine energy venture operated by Lancelot Industries, has gone silent. Players will step into the boots of a new shift of rig workers, engineers, and security personnel, tasked with restarting operations on the eerily quiet platform and discovering the fate of the mysteriously vanished previous crew. However, whispers from the deep hint at an ancient, unsettling phenomenon originating from the sunken Dogger Island below, which has begun to affect the rig’s inhabitants in terrifying ways, leading to unsettling transformations.
This multi-part Shiver Epic throws participants into a terrifying struggle for survival. As part of dedicated Drill, Science, Security, or Support teams, you will navigate a rig teeming with unknown dangers, uncover dark secrets, and confront a rapidly evolving threat. Shiver RPG's unique storytelling system, complete with a ticking Doom Clock, ensures every decision has chilling consequences, drawing you deeper into a visceral tale of suspense and horror.
The "Trouble at Trollhalsen" Shiver RPG Epic will be held on 20th September 2025, from 9am - 6pm, at Grimsby's Historic Docks. Tickets are available for £15.
All profits from ticket sales will be donated to Creative Start CIC, an award-winning local service promoting recovery through arts and hobbying. Don’t miss your chance to be part of this terrifying adventure – where survival is far from guaranteed, but the story is always king!
