Penny dreadfuls are all the rage, but the monsters aren’t just on the page. They are alive and wandering the streets, and Victorian London is at risk. Zombies, werewolves and many more are threatening to rip apart society, but there’s one beast in particular that has caught your attention.
You are one of the most respected monster hunters in England, so it was only natural that the old man would call on you when he heard the rumours. The frantic whispers had reached your ears as well, but you’d dismissed them as nothing more than fanciful imagination. Your path is clear; learn all you can about the legendary Beast of London and destroy it.
Your journey through Victorian London will be fraught with the foulest monsters imaginable. You, the reader, must take control of the story in the third Pick Your Path adventure and earn the reputation as the greatest monster hunter of all time.
The choices are yours, but choose carefully…
