- Q: For spirits attached to The Beyond: (1) Are they still considered assets or some other card type entirely? (2) Are they still considered under Jim's control? (3) If (2) is yes, if Jim fails a test on Crypt Chill and must choose and discard an asset he controls, can he choose to discard a spirit attached to The Beyond? (4) Can he play a card like Summoned Servitor, which requires him to discard a card he controls, to discard a spirit from play? (5) If the Vengeful Shade weakness in his Spirit deck is engaged with him, then defeated, is it placed in Jim's discard pile or at the bottom of the spirit deck? A: Yes, the spirits are still considered assets, but they are not Ally assets, and cannot be removed from play except by the abilities on The Beyond or abilities on the spirits themselves (e.g. Stray Cat). Jim could not discard a spirit from Crypt Chill or Summoned Servitor. And because the Spirit deck “owns” Vengeful Shade, if it entered play and was later defeated, it gets discarded to the bottom of the Spirit deck (per the rules for discarded spirits). (March 2024)
- Q: If I am holding two copies of Magnifying Glass while investigating Bone-Filled Caverns, am I forced to discard one of them?

A: If you investigate Bone-Filled Cavern and have 2 hand slots filled with assets, you must discard assets until you have 1 or 0 hand slots filled instead.

- Q: Imagine an investigator has The Silver Moth in play, occupying their 1 accessory slot. They attempt to play Holy Rosary. In the above situation, does the investigator ends up with both Holy Rosary and The Silver Moth in play? A: The Silver Moth’s ability prevents its bearer from playing any new items into their accessory slot, meaning they could not attempt to play Holy Rosary while they had The Silver Moth in play.

Q: If I'm fighting a ready Weeping Yurei, and I draw a token or token, its Forced ability makes it attack me, and then the elusive keyword makes it move away. What happens to the rest of the fight? A: If you attack the Weeping Yurei and then draw a token or token during that attack, the Yurei will attack you immediately (during Step 3 of the skill test), move, and exhaust; after which, you’ll finish resolving your attack and still deal damage to the Yurei even though it’s no longer at your location.
