The cards
- The Keeper's Doorstep Start here. Scan this first.
- The Seal Breaks Something happens here. The score stays where it is.
- The Tome of the Forgotten The book itself. Carry it. Every monster you beat goes back inside.
- Quasimodo, the Last Bell-Ringer He rang the bell for the last Keeper. He stayed when everyone else ran.
- The Keeper's Draught A red spiral turning in glass. Steadies your hands. Opens two locked pages.
- The Phoenix Cloak Woven from phoenix feathers. Turns a blow that would end you. Opens the cold pages.
- The Forest Witch She wrote the Tome. She will teach you the word that closes a page.
- Grimmauld the Wolf-Trader A monster who would rather sell you something than go back in the book. Trade here.
- The Silver Axe Grimmauld's own axe. He says he will not need it if you do your job.
- The Wolfsbane Charm Keeps the worst of the moon off you.
- The Weedwalker of Hollow Mere Something that was a man before the mere took him, still wearing the reeds it wrapped him in.
- The Chrysalis Man A scholar who read one page too far, and came out of the study with the wrong number of arms.
- Frankenstein's Creature Page six. Quasimodo knew him. He will tell you the one word that slows him down.
- The Phantom Buccaneer Page seven. He burns what he touches. Drink first.
- Mr. Hyde Page eight. Two men on one page, and only one of them wants to fight you.
- Nosferatu the Shadow Page ten. The cold comes off him in sheets. Wear the cloak or do not come.
- The Moonstruck Lycanthrope Page nine, under the moon. This is Grimmauld, and he cannot trade now.
- The Laughing Man Page eleven. He came down with something that was not a circus. Bring the axe.
- The Bell Tower Quasimodo's tower. Catch your breath. Nothing follows you up here.
- The Torn Page A page from the Tome, and something on it is still moving.
- The Salt Line Someone poured a line across this doorway. Someone else broke it.

- The Vampire Lord Page twelve, and he is holding it. The book could never keep him — it only ever slowed him down. Close it on him.
- Quill of Silence Forged from a fallen scribe's own feather. It strikes silent and swift, and blots out everything it touches.
- Iron-Bound Ledger Bound in cold iron and sealed shut forever. It swings like a mace and lands like a verdict.
- Whispering Dagger Forged from a broken vow, this blade never stops whispering the name of the one who forgot it.
