D100 Haunted Objects and Their Origins

Throughout history, objects have absorbed the emotions, trauma, and memories of their surroundings—especially when tragedy or obsession lingers long after death. These haunted items find their way into shops, ruins, vaults, and even the hands of unsuspecting adventurers. From cursed dolls to whispering blades, each carries a story—and often, a warning. This supplement presents 100 haunted objects, each with a chilling origin. They can be used as cursed treasure, plot devices, grim heirlooms, or the centerpiece of a haunting. Roll a d100 or select an item to inspire your session. Feel free to tweak, re-roll, or combine entries to suit your world. Example: A party discovers a porcelain mask that forces whoever wears it to weep blood. Rolling a 46, they find: "The mask of the last Empress of Sorde, worn as she watched her empire fall." What spirits linger behind it? What power might it hold—or demand? Nothing is fixed. Embrace the eerie.
