The smell of acrid gunsmoke marks the beginning of a final, bloody conflict in the First St. Mary's Church of Norfork - but to end it will require sacrifice. May a god have mercy on their souls.
We will stop it. We will bring her back. We are only endangering ourselves this time.
You dangle a child's life in your hands, can't you see them?
There are countless children, lost now. Will you try to stop us?
If I could, you would never have found this place... (Content Warnings: blood, violence, guns, harm to children, harm to animals, body horror, limb dislocation, brief discussion of deadly illness)

What is Pest Control?
Pest Control is an actual-play horror tabletop show from AltHaven. Join Keeper Sam R, and players William, Jonas, and Sam D as they get lost in fantastical worlds featuring compelling characters, engaging story, and thrilling twists!
Season 1, "Fate", originally ran in 2019 as a livestream on the AltHaven (formerly Queuetimes) main YouTube channel. It uses the Monster of the Week game system. It follows a group of found-family monster Hunters as they set off on a journey across the United States, dealing with the creatures they encounter and drawing ever nearer to the end of the road...
Season 2, "Norfork", uses Monster of the Week as well as a mix of other indie tabletop role-playing games to tell the story of a world where everyone knows monsters exist, and a town that is slowly losing its identity to the enormous neighboring City.
