A dizzying violet light emerges from the crevices of the ramshackle house, behind cracks in the wooden paneling and underneath the floor, bathing you from every angle. An inhuman squeal mocks you as a figure emerges from the witch light. Only a hint of humanity remains in her crooked and broken form. The crone cackles with a nightmarish timbre, her voice echoing and resounding from the realm beyond.

...the descriptions of the darting little furry object which served as her familiar were so painfully realistic despite their incredible details. – H. P. Lovecraft, The Dreams in the Witch House

As you explore the old, dilapidated house, the telltale scratching and scurrying in the walls becomes louder and more frequent. Every now and again a fanged, furry creature darts across the wooden floor, scampering in and out of ratholes in the walls. You wonder if this house is more rat than wood.
If Brown Jenkin is in play, search the encounter deck and discard pile for a Swarm of Rats and spawn it in Brown Jenkin’s location. If Brown Jenkin is not in play, search the encounter deck and discard pile for him and spawn it in the lead investigator’s location.
Additionally, if there are 3 or 4 investigators in the game, search the encounter deck and discard pile for a Swarm of Rats and spawn it in any Witch House location.

A sudden flash of violet light causes you to reel backwards. The spectral form of the crone is broken and shattered, but as you fall you can see a sinister grin play across her misshapen face. A jolt of pain surges through you as your head strikes the surface of the wall, and the witch’s terrible grin is the last thing you see before everything goes black.
When you awaken, the witch light is gone, but a vision is burned in your mind—the ancient crone, bent over a slanted floor, leering gleefully at a rotting book, a misshapen knife in her crooked fingers. Behind her, the twilight abyss extends into oblivion, and a gaping maw begins to close.
—If it is act 1 or 2, set Nahab aside, out of play, and place 4 doom on agenda 4a as it enters play.
—If it is act 3, place 1 doom on Nahab.

In the dazzling violet light of dream the old woman and the fanged, furry thing came again and with a greater distinctness than on any former occasion. This time they actually reached him, and he felt the crone’s withered claws clutching at him. —H.P. Lovecraft, “The Dreams in the Witch Houseâ€
