A 1920s horror scenario tempered in northern Indiana.

Elias Taylor Winters, the CEO of TWJ Co., discovered a secret to the glass-making process that finally put him above his long-standing competition: Ball Glass. Shattering expectations for such a small company in rural Indiana, Winters has put Glasston on the map. The town and its economy are booming. But not everything in Glasston is as it should be…

Refractions of Glasston is a standalone scenario for Call of Cthulhu 7th Edition. It takes place in a rural town in northwest Indiana, set in the 1920s. Inside you’ll find:

  • A thrilling mystery surrounding the town of Glasston, fueled by intrigue and disturbing encounters.
  • A history of Indiana that will prepare Keepers for running a scenario in such an atypical setting.
  • Hooks for incorporating local cryptids or real-life occurrences into the scenario.
  • Multiple endings and ways to continue the adventure for investigation addicts. 


Refractions of Glasston is the result of a creative collaboration between the Professional Writing major at Taylor University, Upland IN and Chaosium Inc. The creators are all students at Taylor University. Though many of the team are members of the Professional Writing major, this is their first foray into the world of RPG writing. With help and advice provided by Chaosium's Mike Mason and Lynne Hardy, these writers, editors, and RPG enthusiasts set out to create a unique adventure for Call of Cthulhu fans to enjoy.

REVISED EDITION 1.2: The Taylor University PWR students have revised Refractions of Glasston in response to the helpful feedback they have received. This revision also includes some requested updates such as hyperlinked Table of Contents, hyperlinked Index, and a Black and White Printer Friendly edition.

Does v1.2 supercede the v1 that was also included with the updated files?

Yes. 1.2 has been updated to include the errata we are aware of and fixes some issues with the layout.

Thanks for downloading and reading the adventure designed by our students. The students spent the first couple weeks of the semester researching individual topics to share with the group including Indiana in the 1920s, myths and legends in the area, the history of a nearby small natural gas boomtown as they were using it as an example for Glasston, how glass jars are manufactured, and the history of the Ball Brothers glass company as it would figure prominently as an influence in our adventure. - Professor T.R. Knight

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
