(From Ignorance to Wisdom; From Light into Darkness.)

Step into H.P. Lovecraft's mythos! Miskatonic University is a reimagining of Lovecraft's characters and stories, setting his dark tales within Arkham's most prestigious school. As a student of Miskatonic, you enter a campus forever poised on the brink of some terrible (or transcendent) discovery. You can explore over 10 Lovecraft-inspired locations and interact with dozens of Lovecraft's characters and cosmic entities: take art lessons with Professor Pickman, help Herbert West perfect his reanimation serum, join the cult of Cthulhu, or explore the boundaries of human mortality with Randolph Carter. Every encounter is an invitation to chase mysteries that stretch far beyond the university grounds, bringing you face-to-face with dark cults, horrific Eldritch beings, and esoteric secrets. Make your Miskatonic University experience whatever you want it to be!
