Step inside the shadows of Pentridge Prison Tours for a three-hour collaborative storytelling experience unlike anything you’ve played before.

Set within the former H-Division — grimly known by inmates as Hell Division — Cell of Cthulhu uses the authentic bluestone cells and oppressive atmosphere of this former maximum-security unit to immerse players in an otherworldly tale. Each game unfolds inside a real prison cell, deep within the bowels of the former prison itself.

Presented in partnership with Masters of Alchemy, Melbourne’s premier provider of theatrical tabletop role-playing experiences, this one-shot adventure is guided by a professional Game Master. Over the course of the session, players will unravel a complete, self-contained story — witnessing the creation of eerie worlds and being drawn directly into them.

What to Expect:

  • Three-hour, one-shot Call of Cthulhu adventure
  • Professional Game Master
  • Maximum of five players per table

Helpful information

  • Food and beverage service is not available inside H-Division. Guests are welcome to bring their own snacks; however, alcohol is not permitted within the prison. Drinks before or after your session can be enjoyed at BrewDog Pentridge, located within the Pentridge precinct and offering takeaway food options. 
  • To book as a group, please purchase tickets in a single transaction. Minimum numbers apply for sessions to proceed. 
  • Please note, minimum numbers required for games to run.

Cell of Cthulhu is presented by the National Trust of Australia (Victoria) in partnership with Masters of Alchemy.
