2025 on ArkhamHorror.com – Fiction

It’s the height of the Roaring Twenties… the 2020s, and as we bask in the warm glow of the holiday season, 2025 draws steadily towards its close.

2025 wasn’t just another year in the world of Arkham Horror, but the year in which ArkhamHorror.com as the new home of all things eldritch and action-packed, from original fiction to all the latest news on Arkham Horror: The Card Game, Arkham Horror: The Roleplaying Game, Aconyte’s Arkham Horror novels, and more besides.

Some of you have no doubt been with us from the start, while others have joined along the way, so as we approach the New Year we thought we’d look back at some of the highlights from over this first year of ArkhamHorror.com, starting today with a look at the amazing Arkham Horror fiction we’ve published this year.

You can read all of the series in the round-up below right here on the website, and many are also available in audio form, or in downloadable, deluxe illustrated editions. There’s much more to come (including a return for a number of the series launched this year) over the coming year, so once you’ve caught up, make sure you never miss a thing by subscribing to the Arkham Horror newsletter and the Aconyte Fiction Podcast.

Tales from Nevermore is fiction with a difference – it’s real Arkham fiction, offering tales of mystery and wonder from Arkham’s #1 pulp fiction magazine! It’s not just stories, either. The captivating, horrifying and enlightening extracts we’ve been able to bring you so far include poetry from investigator Lucius Galloway, a reader’s letter from an unlikely source, and a quiz to find out if you, yourself, dear reader, might be psychic… Read each of the instalments online or download the illustrated PDF version to experience these remarkable tales in their ‘original’ form.

The Foundation Files

Who or what is the mysterious Foundation? Discover all – well, some – of the answers (maybe) in this series of web fiction.

Arkham International: Shadow of the Drowned City

Discover some familiar faces, far from home in the aftermath of the events of the Drowned City. Season 1 of Arkham International sees Trish Scarborough and Rowland Banks each departing Arkham for their own reasons. Their movements do not go unnoticed, however, with a mysterious organisation taking an interest in both investigators…

Written by Josh Reynolds, Shadow of the Drowned City is available in both text and audio, narrated by Todd Menesses. Click on the banner below to check out the complete series.

The Investigators of Arkham Horror short stories

If you’ve played any of the games in the Arkham Horror series, you’ll know that the ways in which Arkham’s famed investigators first encountered the eldritch and the ancient are many and varied. You may also know that a number of long-standing investigators had their origins explored in the Investigators of Arkham Horror book, published in 2016. Since then, a host of new investigators have entered the world of Arkham Horror, and this holiday season we have been telling some of their stories on ArkhamHorror.com, with new short stories so far for Winnifred Habbamock, Lucius Galloway, Kōhaku Marukami, Marion Tavares and Nathaniel Cho, all penned by Carrie Harris, each available in text and audio formats. Check out the stories by clicking on the banner below, and once you’ve done so, be sure to let us know on social media which investigators you’d like see to get their story next.
