Dire Documents, subtitled "Diabolical Dossiers of Doom", is a supplement published by Chaosium in 1993 for the horror role-playing game Call of Cthulhu.
Chaosium first published the Lovecraftian horror role-playing game Call of Cthulhu in 1981, and subsequently produced a number of editions, including the 5th edition in 1992. The following year, Chaosium produced two supplemental products for use with the 5th edition under the subtitle "Diabolical Dossiers of Doom": Investigator Sheets, a set of blank character sheets; and Dire Documents, a pack of nine blank two-color forms, including:
Each of these can be used by the gamemaster as player handouts in a role-playing game. [2]
In the October 1993 edition of Dragon (#198), Rick Swan called these "indispensable for Keepers who like to make their own clues or bewilder their friends." However, Swan questioned why Chaosium did not include a folder or envelope for storage. [2]
A copy of Dire Documents is held in the "Edwin and Terry Murray Collection of Role-Playing Games, 1972-2017" at Duke University. [4]
