Years ago, I came across a very good webpage for call of cthulhu - it was called Tales of Terror and the url was talesofterror.net. I recently found that the page is gone and so is all of the content..but I was like "LETS HIT THE WAYBACK MACHINE!" and I did. I have collected the tales of terror from the page and in honor of the authors I will present them here.
Systemless Tales - These Tales of Terror are completely systemless and can be dropped into any roleplaying game with barely any adaptation...
