I was trying, and failing, to find online any maps of the towns in the Lovecraft Universe. In particular the Severn Valley towns such as Goatswood. Does anyone here know where I can fins such maps?

Since I can't find a map but want to be true to a Lovecraft town, I can always read the story that has it. Thanks again

Its sposed to have some very good qualities if more than its fair share of technical issues to compensate for that goodHadn't thought of Innsmouth, though I only know of two or three towns. Not sure what's in Innsmouth, but sounds fun to try! I figured a custom story in a Lovecraft town would be fun. My current story that I'm making doesn't use Innsmouth, but a (I think small) town called [Spoiler] Goatswood.

Really its not the towns that makes Lovecrafts stories so good though, its the common mythology between them. I wouldn't say any town particularly stands out, its just the events that happen that stand out. Innsmouth stands out to me because that story is, in my opinion, the bestI think I see what you're saying. I can make my own town with Lovecraft based/inspired events. Thank you.

The Rock Worm, I think you already knew about my upcoming story the Cthulhu-mythos.
The thing that alot of people do not know, is that Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth is only loosely based on H.P. Lovecraft's "The Shadow over Innsmouth." Devloping the game entirely based on the Shadow over Innsmouth would be a very strange and unattractive way of playing the game.
