Graveyard Shift
over 3 years ago – Sat, Aug 15, 2020 at 04:09:40 AM

Good evening everyone. We continue to work diligently on bringing this project to life and fleshing out all the details.

Big news! Our coins will soon start production and we will bring you first look. We added a surprise piece. Stay tuned on that.

The witches bottle continues to come to fruition. The Witch's dress is being torn to shreds as we speak and will be an important element in keeping her from exiting the spirit interviewer.

There's no bones about it, we're having our custom made bone dice milled and shaped this week. But who's bones were they? Another little secret to be revealed.

On instagram we may have let slip who the secret identity of our tintype may be. Can you figure it out?

This and so much more....

Hi Everybody!

We hope everyone is doing well, staying safe, and having a great summer! Thank you to everyone who has completed their Backerkit survey for our Spiritus Colloquium Campaign, and thank you for your support.   We are knees deep into development and are super happy with everything so far :)

We just wanted to send out a notice to finalize your survey if you have not already, and that we will be charging Credit Cards this week after locking in your orders. Please feel free to add on any items that you may want using the survey, even duplicates for a friend or family member.  This will also be your only chance to get some of the Kickstarter Exclusive items that we have to offer.

If you've already completed your survey, but would still like to add to your Spiritus Colloquium collection, our Backerkit Pre-Order site will be open while we are in production.  You can find the link on the front page of our Kickstarter campaign.

No Rest For The Wicked
almost 4 years ago – Fri, Jul 17, 2020 at 09:39:51 AM

Good evening everyone. We are hard at work fleshing out more dark goodies for the Spiritus Colloquium. 

For tonight's update we would like to share the Dark Tower Protection Candle has been upgraded and infused with special ingredients that allow the flame to glow bright and works especially well at the witching hour... Midnight!

We also dug up some old medicine bottles made from teal cut glass. Perfect to house the heated rusty nails and piece of old Hazel Trigg's dress. This set will also include a protection spell to keep her from entering this world when you conduct your seance with her. 

We have also made our final choice for the board backer. This embossed tooled design in chestnut brown will make your spirit interviewer look great from any position. Thank you everyone who offered up their wickedly good opinions and helping us pick.

Our period correct ladies kerchief has also come to fruition. Use this artifact to summon The Victim. She has much to tell you about her life and how she died. She may even know The Ripper's true identity. Use the coin modifier set and she may even tell you about your life and what's to come!

And last but not least, our smudge stick has been upgraded to White Sage. Used in rituals for purification, this smudge stick should be used after every seance. Our bound spirits have been trying to break out every chance they can...

More updates to come. Stay safe.

Research and Development, Materials, and Coins

Happy Summer Everyone!

There are still a few backers that have not completed their survey.  Without this, and proper shipping address, we will not be able to fulfill your pledge.  Please make sure to contact us if you've lost your survey.

During these past few weeks, we have been diligently working on the Spiritus Colloquium!   We have a few new things to show you:

 Leatherette 

We have been doing a lot of research and testing to find the right leather type material for the bottom of the boards and planchettes.  After looking through hundreds of samples, we've been eyeing up these 8-9 choices.   We will narrow it down to a final choice soon, once we determine which works the best, both physically and spiritually.

Artifacts sets

We have also been gathering authentic artifacts for the Toymaker, The Ripper and the Victim as well as further developing the coins that will come with each add-on set.  The coin sculpts are almost done.  We want to ensure that these coins represent each character as closely as possible.

If you haven't already added this set to your pledge, I urge you to do so now.  You will not be dissapointed.

Seance Edition Reclaimed Wood

We have also been on the lookout for reclaimed wood which we will be hand making our Seance Edition Boxes with.  We really like the look of the old, weathered boards, that both tell a story and have great characteristics.   We've also been researching vintage hardware and hinges to determine which best suits our needs.  More info to come as the summer rolls on...

Feel free to contact us with any questions.   Stay safe out there and enjoy your summer!

Ramsey & Mike.

Finalizing Survey's and Final reminders
almost 4 years ago – Thu, May 14, 2020 at 07:49:47 AM

Hi Everybody!

We hope everyone is staying safe.   

Thank you to everyone who have completed their Backerkit survey for our Spiritus Colloquium Campaign.  It has been 2 weeks since we've sent our the surveys and we have been diligently working on finalizing some designs as well as cautiously creating the new items, such as the coins and dice game.  

We are still waiting on about 30% of you to finalize your survey so that we can tally up the total number of items we need to fill all of your pledges.   If you've lost your original survey email, don't fret.  We will send out another reminder blast today.  Please be on the lookout for that.

Please feel free to add on any items that you may want using the survey, even duplicates for a friend or family member.  This will also be your only chance to get some of the Kickstarter Exclusive items that we have to offer.   

Our Backerkit Pre-Order site will be open while we go into production, but don't forget that you will get discounted shipping charges when you add items into your survey.   If you order at a later date, which you are more than welcome to, you will be charged full shipping charges.

Also, please do not hesitate to ask any questions.  We are happy to help.

Thank you again for all of your support!  Stay Safe!

Ramsey and Mike
