Under the Autumn Strangelyis a storytelling game of pastoral horror by Graham Gentz priming with anachronistic Americana set in a land thatNever Was.

Inspired by “Over the Garden Wall” created by Patrick McHale, players collaboratively create a world uncanny and old. Codify and encourage tonal clash as the Three Roles meld whimsy,autumnal melancholy,anddread.

Take a wrong turn on a dusty road. Follow the sign past the red barn with peeling paint. Doubt your senses.

Get a little lost.

Welcome to the Never Was.

You, ours, and we can be
a dream to bring us
