Story Absurdities and Offenses

My big problem with the story of this adventure is that it takes the CoC cliche of drawing the investigators into something because a heretofore undisclosed acquaintance or relative of the PCs has died, and does it one better. While I could believe that in any group of people there might be a few who are distantly related -- but *first cousins*?

And while claiming to be respectful of those who died in the Salem Witch Trials, the story line then turns around and says, yep, they really *were* worshippers of foul beings from beyond space and time! By that standard, Cotton Mather is a fricking *investigator*!
