[edit] Summary
From the White Wolf catalog:
- Behold a Pale Horse...
- Graves yawn wide. Spirits haunt the living. Corpses pursue perverse agendas from beyond the grave. The gates to the next world swing wide. Is it the end of the world? Not if hunters can help it. Theirs is the power to put the dead to rest - once and for all.
- ...and His Name That Sat on Him was Death
- Hunter: The Walking Dead explores and explains the proliferation of ghosts and zombies in the lands of the living. These monsters are hunters' greatest enemies - they're everywhere and are clearly abominations against everything right and natural. And yet, why do hunters' emergence and the rise of spirts seem to coincide? What is the hudden connection between the imbued and the restless dead?
