On the 15th December 1900 the lighthouse keepers at  Eilean Mòr made a routine entry into the lighthouse log. 

“Storm ended, sea calm. God is over all”

--------------------------

Based on the mythologised version of the historical disappearance of three lighthouse keepers in 1900, No Glimmer Through the Night is a horror ttrpg story. The players take on the role of a varied group looking to investigate what happened on the island. 

While there the characters will have to face horrors they were not expecting. As monsters manifest and the weight of their past transgressions weighs down upon them, they will have to find a way to escape the island, or figure out what they can do to change things here.
