Already a LARPer? Want to proclaim it to the world (or know someone who does)? Our affordable, quality t-shirts make great gifts!

Update (December 2025):

As snow once again blankets our part of the world, we wish you happy LARPing wherever you may be!

Work continues on our next published LARP, Conspiracy of Ravens, the official, in-universe sequel to Carnival Arcane: The LARP (our first published product). Conspiracy of Ravens is a stand-alone adventure, so you don't need to play Carnival Arcane first, but you will find both events more satisfying if you do. As always, watch this space for news.

To finish this year, we present this timeless addage:

Dream large.

What's Special About Our LARP Scenarios?

The FYI team has more than 50 years of combined experience writing and presenting LARP events for private groups and at conventions across the Midwest. We take pride in creating and running enjoyable, parlor-style LARPs that are full of surprising plots and unique twists, and we like introducing players to the hobby. Our event runners are always happy to offer advice and guidance, and most of our events include roles for people who never played a LARP before.

Many of our current and planned published scenarios draw inspiration from the gothic horror soundtracks of Midnight Syndicate, which you hear playing every year at Halloween stores and haunted house attractions across the USA. Please visit their web site to hear sample tracks and discover why Midnight Syndicate is the Halloween industry's go-to source of quality background music.

If you want to introduce your friends and family to LARPing but can't bring them all to a convention, our pre-packaged LARP scenarios let you run an enjoyable and memorable event and contain almost everything you need, including but not limited to the following:

• Historical information and context for the scenario

• Informative character sheets and useful player handouts

• Game Master (GM) plot summaries and reference sheets

• Tips for advertising your event and attracting players

• Suggestions for costuming, set decoration, and, occasionally, menus (for those who enjoy hosting)

• Advice and tips both for GMs and for new players

We strive to include great advice for GMs in all our products, but we recommend that you feel comfortable running parlor-style LARPs (or at least table-top RPGs) before you try running one of our events.

We intend to publish all of our Midnight Syndicate-inspired events. Our first product -- Carnival Arcane: The LARP -- is available at DriveThruRPG.com! This well-received LARP scenario is based on Midnight Syndicate's award-winning album, Carnival Arcane, and is used with permission. For more details, click here. We will announce other published LARPs in the series on this site as they become available.
