Savage Worlds - Horror Companion

If you like your Savage Worlds sessions to feel like a horror film that’s one beat away from going wrong, the Horror Companion is your dark toolkit. This book brings the full spectrum of fear to SWADE - from classic monster hunting and pulpy splatter to cosmic dread and psychological suspense. You’ll find new character options (Edges and Hindrances) to build hunters, survivors, cultists, or even the thing in the dark, plus gear that feels pulled from a basement of rituals, relics, and last-ditch plans.

What really shines is how it supports atmosphere with mechanics: Lodge rules to create a home base with secrets and scars, setting rules that reinforce horror pacing (fear, rituals, escalation), and a bestiary refreshed with new Special Abilities and twists so players never feel too certain they “know what it is.” All of it is SWADE-ready in a 202-page hardcover.

Light the candle. Open the door. See what answers.
