Welcome to The D.A.N.G.E.R.Z.O.O.: The Department of Anomalous & Non-Human Genetic Entities, Reconnaissance, and Zoological Occult Operations. This is a cinematic TTRPG experience where a team of ragtag operatives takes on cryptids, urban legends, and supernatural threats in a modern world that doesn’t know the truth. Each mission is a high-stakes encounter with flesh-and-blood beasts, vengeful spirits, cursed relics, and things not meant to be seen. Think X-Files meets Ghostbusters with tactical gear and bad ideas.

    Headless Horseman Halloween Special Part 2

    The Danger Zoo C3 E5 (Actual Play VTTRPG) Case File 6576-A2 In the second episode of our Halloween special, Haze has disappeared after his terrifying encounter with the Headless Horseman, leaving Grandpa and Baby Bird to navigate the maze on their own. After finally finding each other, the two barely have time to regroup before a massive boulder comes crashing down the corridor behind them. Very "Temple of Doom" ish. They escape by the skin of their teeth, but the collapse leaves a huge section of the maze completely blocked off. Things somehow get worse when Baby Bird carefully tries to cross one of the maze’s deadly goo traps and is suddenly kicked straight into it by... Haze!?!? Except something is very wrong. Haze’s head has been replaced by a horrifying jack-O-lantern, and he appears to be under the control of the Headless Horseman. Can Grandpa and Baby Bird escape from whatever Haze has become, or can they somehow save him? Only one way to find out. If there's a cryptid, monster, or haunted location you'd like to see the team investigate in a future case, let us know in the comments. Your suggestion might become the next mission for the D.A.N.G.E.R.Z.O.O.

    Headless Horseman Halloween Special

    The Danger Zoo C3 E4 (Actual Play VTTRPG) Case File 6576-A1 While investigating the Crescent Hotel, the Danger Zoo crew is suddenly paralyzed, force-fed something disgusting, and transported to a massive underground maze beneath Sleepy Hollow, New York. A strange but oddly familiar voice comes over their radios with a horrifying explanation: each of them has swallowed a piece of the Headless Horseman’s skull, and the Horseman is now hunting them through the maze to get those pieces back. To survive, the crew has to search piles of Halloween candy for ipecac, throw up their skull fragments, find one another, reassemble the Horseman’s head, and get it to the unsummoning circle before midnight. Piece of friggin cake...for anyone but these idiots. Between them and freedom are lethal traps, poisoned candy, a maze designed to keep them separated, and the relentless sound of the Headless Horseman getting closer. Can The Danger Zoo nitwits make it out in time!?!?! Only one way to find out. Enjoy the Halloween Special! If there's a cryptid, monster, or haunted location you'd like to see the team investigate in a future case, let us know in the comments.

    Curiosity Killed the Cat / Haunted Crescent Hotel

    The Danger Zoo C3 E3 (Actual Play VTTRPG) Case File 0418-A3 The girls finally catch a lucky break thanks to a mysterious hotel cat that seems determined to lead them somewhere. Whether it's trying to help or just enjoys watching these morons stumble through the Crescent Hotel is anybody's guess. While Grandpa learns the front desk staff have absolutely zero patience for his nonsense, Haze-Z and sKullZ finally uncover a way to reach the hotel's second floor. Before sKullZ gets to the second floor he makes a terrible detour to the fourth-floor stairwell where a ghost leaves sKullZ questioning every life decision he's ever made, Haze discovers panic is surprisingly dangerous to your own health, and security continues their undefeated streak of throwing the team back into a record-breaking blizzard. For the first time this season, the agents finally manage to catch their breath, assuming the Crescent Hotel is willing to let that happen. If there's a cryptid, monster, or haunted location you'd like to see the team investigate in a future case, let us know in the comments.

    Tight Security at Crescent Hotel / Loose Brain Cells

    The Danger Zoo C3 E2 (Actual Play VTTRPG) Case File 0418-A2 The girls are in the Crescent Hotel, but getting in was the easy part. These idiots run into Locked doors, cryptic clues (they're very simple but so are the danger zoo members), and relentless security has them running in circles as every mistake sends them back outside into a deadly blizzard that only grows stronger. Night Owl joins the crew and quickly learns they've collected plenty of clues, they just can't remember anything. Haze finds himself hiding from a terrifying apparition in a poop station, Skulls has another unsettling encounter with the mysterious doctor in the convention hall, and Baby Bird ventures deeper into the hotel alone in search of answers. As the mystery surrounding the Crescent Hotel deepens, one wrong turn leads to a horrifying discovery that may leave one of the agents fighting for their life. What a weird way to find out Baby Birds can't swim. If there's a cryptid, monster, or haunted location you'd like to see the team investigate in a future case, let us know in the comments.
