Vaesen Has Emerged, Thanks To Free League
Free League Publishing, manufacturers of fine tabletop experiences like Mutant: Year Zero, Tales From The Loop and the official Alien tabletop RPG, have a new one out as of today.

In Vaesen, you and your friends play paranormal investigators in the 19th century who happen to be somewhat paranormal themselves.
