Clyde Wentworth, a traveler from the Arrow shirts firm, was returning from a few visits in Boston (1928) to his city, Arkham, when he was caught in a storm crossing the old road. Clyde tried to keep the car on the road until the quagmire it had become forced him to stop in the middle of nowhere. He manages to reach a ramshackle house that, as incredible as it may seem, was inhabited. He knocked on the door and was opened by an old man by the name of Amos Stark. Throughout the first part ( the game has three), Amos speaks with Clyde and tells him strange stories about an old debt with a certain Fred Whitman, a debt he was paying that same night, although Fred Whitman could not come to collect it, because Fred had died shortly after in a hunt. The people, of course, blamed Amos. The story becomes very complicated and will take Clyde through all of New England in search of Fred's family.
