Cell of Cthulhu

Step inside the setting of the Former City Watch House at Old Melbourne Gaol for a three-hour collaborative storytelling experience unlike anything you’ve played before. Operating from 1909 until 1994, the City Watch House served as Melbourne’s central custody centre – a stark holding place for those awaiting their court date. Today, its authentic cells and imposing atmosphere provide the perfect setting for Cell of Cthulhu, where tension, imagination and storytelling combine to transport players into unsettling worlds. Each game unfolds inside a real holding cell, heightening the sense of immersion as your story develops. Presented in partnership with Masters of Alchemy, Melbourne’s premier provider of theatrical tabletop role-playing experiences, this one-shot adventure is guided by a professional Game Master.
