Other notes:


Night of the Walking Dead was the fourth module of Grand Conjunction series corresponding to the 4th verse of Hyskosa's Hexad. It takes place in 739 BC.[1]

During the climax of Night of the Walking Dead, a red-tinged lunar eclipse occurs over Marais d'Tarascon's graveyard in Souragne.

Issues with the Hexad

In Ship of Horror, Madeline Stern dies giving birth to Morvan. Note that Night of the Walking Dead erroneously says that this verse refers to the child ghost of "Charlotte Stern," but in Ship of Horror, the only child ghost is Charlotte Reisland. Of course this means that it's actually the "stern mother" who is lifeless and not her "child," so the verse as written doesn't quite make sense. The easiest solution is to switch Charlotte and Madeline's surnames. Or one could invent an adoptive mother/daughter relationship between the two ghosts. As a last resort, the verse could be rewritten.
