"The Goblin Market" is a Call of Cthulhu adventure set in 1890s Victorian England, designed for use with the Cthulhu by Gaslight supplement. When a rivalry among London’s elite botanists turns deadly, the investigators are drawn into a web of obsession, colonial horror, and cosmic dread as they uncover the truth behind a monstrous plant specimen—a juvenile Dark Young of Shub-Niggurath. From the hallowed halls of Leiden University to the jungles of British Guiana, they must navigate aristocratic vendettas, forbidden knowledge, and a living gateway to madness before the horror takes root in the heart of London. Will they destroy the abomination, or will they succumb to its allure?
