The frightening creatures of Mansions of Madness Second Edition have haunted your dreams for weeks now. Mysterious disappearances brought you to the Vanderbilt mansion, and your stay in Innsmouth was disturbed by darkness and despair. You’ve encountered devoted cultists and disgruntled spirits, bound to the mortal world by their evil task. Terror has overcome you and grievous injuries have put your mortality on display. Every choice you’ve made has led you somewhere, but even the strongest in mind or body will crack eventually.
Even more horror awaits you in Beyond the Threshold, the first expansion to Mansions of Madness Second Edition.

The new spaces to discover, people to encounter, and cards to experience all come together to bring additional scenarios as well, throwing you into the dim unknown of two new mysteries, each with their own unique additions to the world of Mansions of Madness.

Great expansion. Adds mesmerized status that can be good or bad for the players. Thrall - new monster is really powerful. I don’t like new investigators tough. Scenarios are just superb. Can’t wait for more.

These expansions can be tough to rate. I am big on scenarios, so I like the value of at least getting 2 new scenarios in one, smaller expansion so that is a plus. The new monster type is fine, it does add a bit of something to the game, though I'm not sure how much use they will get when playing content outside of this box as it seems like FFG would be reluctant to even have them as optional content in other adventures. Extra tiles are fine, as are investigators (the stack is honestly thick enough already...), but I don't buy expansions for those as I already own a ton of content in those areas. Scenario Comments (can be mildly spoilery): Gates of Silverwood Manor - (Beyond the Threshold, 1 of 2) This scenario takes the investigators back to a pure haunted house story, but spices it up considerably by having the actual layout of the house shift during the course of the story. This is an excellent thematic touch and we really liked the play of this. The story is more thematic and investigation oriented, but if the timer starts to run out your team will need combat chops to have any chance at suriviving. The 4* difficulty is pretty accurate with this one, but we liked it a lot, and didn't feel like the scenario was unfairly punishing. I would likely volunteer this over Cycle of Eternity as a teaching map at this point. Vengeful Impulses - (Beyond the Threshold, 2 of 2) The story is a shorter investigation centered scenario which means it is light on monsters and combat and big on interrogating NPCs. If you like this type of scenario (and I do as a change of pace) this is certainly a fine option as it seemed the right length for the type of play it offered (i.e.: I didn't mind Rising Tide, but I would much rather replay this). It's nowhere near as innovative as the other scenario in the pack, but I can't complain that it is there as an option going forward.
