In the New England fishing village of Innsmouth, private investigator Jack Walters discovers a dark secret. It leads him to the morbid world of Cthulhu, where fear can be heightened, perceptions altered and sanity lost. Before long, it becomes clear that a diabolical occult called The Order has taken hold of the small town, making for a frightening mystery that must be unraveled. These ominous events serve as the backdrop to Headfirst Productions' upcoming Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth, a first-person horror game that puts players on a grim path of adventure and action in a 1920s setting. Based on the works of author H.P. Lovecraft, the title depicts a world steeped in evil and chaos. Such darkness not only manifests itself in physical reality, but in the very mind of the character as well.
