Something big is brewing in Railsend. Old friends appear and powerful magic rises in the town as the final mystery of season 2 begins.

The Mule Skinner may be gone, but tensions still run high around the monster hunters in Railsend. Angry superiors and conflict between team members keep Gwyneth, Aaron, John, and Avice busy even without a mystery at hand. 

The hunters frantically try to stop the Mule Skinner’s explosive plans. The resulting conflict is far more violent than expected.

An attempt at chasing down the Mule Skinner gets messy. The hunters continue searching a way to stop their adversary as the deadline of his ultimatum looms. 

The idea of 'the Bunny Rider' was far more amusing the real guy. The hunters scramble to find a plan as the magnitude of the threat begins to dawn on them.

The James Younger Gang has plans to destroy Railsend and our 'heroes' are the only thing in their way. It's time for another showdown in the woods!

Having realized the problem is bigger than "just" battling factions of ghosts, the Heroes fight to save Railsend from an unexpected invasion.

Being caught between Jesse James and the Pinkertons has been hard on our heroes, but things manage to get much, much worse. 

The party has split up to investigate the second coming of Jesse James, the James-Younger Gang, and a whole mess of Pinkertons. What could go wrong? Other than making a deal with outlaws and getting arrested, that is. 

Dealing with the second coming of Jesse-Freaking-James was bad enough, but then some dude calling himself Allan Pinkerton shows up looking like he's from the Nineteenth Century. Our heroes hit it off with Pinkerton even worse than they did with Jesse James.

After the anachronistic train robbery, our heroes investigate the matter with limited success. Then comes an unexpected visitor.

Season 2 of Railsend Mysteries begins with an old-fashioned train robbery. Because, Railsend. 

If you or a friend are interested in Railsend Mysteries, but perhaps a little intimidated by the 24 episodes in season one, this is the special episode to listen to.

The hunters escape the Healing Cavern Tabernacle and find refuge in the ghost town of Jacobs. After a bit of a recovery, they visit the Maiden of the Wood. Alas, the hunters discover that they brought danger to Jacobs.

The hunters find more trouble than profit at the festival at the old iron works. Who had the bright idea of putting the Healing Cavern Tabernacle's booth across from Aaronson's Mystic Delights?

As our heroes recover from saving the MoMos, new information and new connections in the community become available.

In the finale of this arc, the hunters face off against the Healing Cavern Tabernacle in a desperate attempt to save the MoMos. As the situation grows more and more dire, it's up to the most unlikely member of the team to save the day.

Obviously nothing bad could happen when our supernatural monster hunters visit a possibly haunted Victorian style mansion the night before Halloween.

With the first mystery concluded, the hunters try to get oriented in Railsend.

Guess what? We have listeners! Some of those listeners have asked what this podcast is, what we're doing, and where this is all happening. In this bonus episode, Hannah and John answer those and other questions, and maybe even wax philosophically about the nature of RPGs and the Ozarks a bit.

The hunters get to the bottom of the Spooklight, fighting Old Man Lawson and the fire-fearing beast in this action packed arc finale.
