You now stand before the final room. A single lock holds your fate at bay and you alone hold the key. Only you can choose to open it...or turn away. Your husband warned you not to enter, yet here you stand. Once you open the door there is no going back. Once seen, the secrets concealed behind this lock and key can never be unseen.
Faithful or disloyal….What kind of bride have you been?

A Fairy Tail Ending
This journey has been a long, dark, and beautiful one. The rooms of Bluebeard’s mansion have left the Bride’s fragmented mind craving things it did not--and could not--have before. Yet brides come and go, like the tide. It is the groundskeeper who remains. An ever-vigilant and loyal servant to the horrors of Bluebeard’s estate.
Your support, encouragement, and play is a part of the legacy of Bluebeard’s Bride and on behalf of the entire team that brought this game to life, I would like to thank you all from the bottom of my little black heart.
If you cannot get enough Bluebeard, we invite you all to join in with fellow fans to keep discussing your haunted rooms and prep for Bluebeard’s next wedding….because there will always be another.

The Tarot of Servants Companion PDF
The Tarot of Servants is a play aid to help the Groundskeeper generate servants on the fly. All it takes is a quick reading of a few cards, and the Groundskeeper will be ready to introduce another face from Bluebeard’s mansion, tailored to the house’s dark secrets. The companion also explains how you can use the Tarot of Servants as a traditional tarot deck with a few modifications. We’ve even included examples for you to use as a base for your custom servants.
Players and others may enjoy the companion to get a taste of what the core game of Bluebeard’s Bride is like, or to see what servants they could have met. Every servant will be different each time you play the game, and do not assume you know if someone is a servant or a horror—for there is a thin line between the two, and that line may be crossed during an encounter.
If you have friends who wish to pick up a copy of the Tarot Companion, it will also available on DTRPG later today for people who didn’t back the Kickstarter.

The Tarot of Servants is a fully illustrated dark-occult tarot deck that features horrors from Bluebeard’s mansion. This 84 card deck twists the traditional Rider Waite tarot and expands it with alternate Major Arcana from the Deck of Thoth. It contains all you need for traditional or custom readings, as well as serving as a tool you can use to create Bluebeard’s loathsome servants during a game of Bluebeard’s Bride.
The Final Room is in Sight…
Thank you all for all of your support. This is the last supplement for the Bluebeard’s Bride kickstarter, so please stay tuned for a final update closing out the project. We hope you enjoy The Tarot of Servants Companion!

What Kind of Date will you be?
Join the Date this Cyber Monday as she meets her online lover for the first time at the Vacant Hotel.
This PDF expands The Book of Mirrors—a supplement for Bluebeard’s Bride—with a new playset that explores the story of Bluebeard and his online Date meeting for the first time at his remote vacant hotel.
Like the Book of Mirrors, this playset contains everything you might need to play an entirely different version of the original game of feminine horror. Yet you ought not assume you know what is to follow within the hotel; this tale of woe is unique upon each telling, and you cannot predict what you will find...
Redeem Your Reward & Play Today!
The Vacant Hotel, a modern-day look at Bluebeard’s Bride, is now available as a secret (digital only) chapter of the Book of Mirrors. This tale follows in the footsteps of Book of Mirrors sending players into a new version of Bluebeard’s Bride in a familiar but different form.
We’ve already pushed out codes via Backerkit, so backers who backed at the $20+ level or above have something new in their downloads section on Backerkit: a code for the Vacant Hotel supplement on DriveThruRPG at no cost!
