The Witch-House
A boarding house just on the outskirts of Arkham, over 300 years old and said to be cursed. If you look up its history, most of its boarders suffer a premature, if not painful, death. But hey, rent's cheap, so it hasn't stopped students and faculty alike to take residence here.

St. Mary's Hospital
Set in uptown Arkham, St. Mary's is a familiar site for the unfortunate victims of the beasties and shady figures roaming the town. Most of its living patients can be found in its Psychiatric ward.

Orne's Gangway
A seedy, low-rent district in Arkham mostly peopled by the poorest townspeople or visitors on their way out of town. The place is teeming with shady characters: Nobody knows what goes on behind its closed doors, and nobody asks. Crime is at its highest here; people go missing down its alleys all the time.

The Nameless Island
Ground on which witches once danced, the island is supposedly deserted and strictly off-limits to students. But everyone knows the hooded necromancers and cultists of Arkham still haunt its dense woods at night.

Christchurch Cemetery
Arkham's own cozy boneyard. During an outbreak of typhoid in 1905, the cemetery was described as brimming with the unembalmed bodies of the dead.

The Blasted Heath
Just west of Arkham, it's a fitting name for the five acres of desolate, dead land in the middle of the Massachusetts countryside. A meteorite had crashed nearby years ago, poisoning the surrounding area and rendering it a wasteland.

Saltonstall Street
The high street where the Arkham's most affluent and rich take residence. But even then, these folk are not immune to the darkness looming over the town.

Miskatonic River
This New England river, the university's namesake, runs through town and all across Massachusetts. Native American lore tells of the Great Spirit Miskatonic, who could drive whole tribes into madness and turn them into cannibals. Once in a while a swimmer will be dragged under, which the locals will credit to something more sinister than a strong current.
