“the schooner demeter is on its way from transylvania to england. the passengers and crew do not know that there is something ancient and evil among them. but they will soon realise the terrible truth. the demeter will reach london, alas without a living soul aboard…”
DEMETER is a gothic horror larp, based on the novel by BRAM STOKER. a game about suppressed sexuality, death and decay, to the clash of science and belief and the modern versus the ancient.
the game has been played numerous times since 2015, mainly run bei STEFAN DEUTSCH.
