Pariah Press was the company, funded by Mike Nystul, that published the first commercial edition of The Whispering Vault role-playing game.
Mike Nystul self-published a new horror role-playing game called The Whispering Vault (1993), which he debuted as a limited edition at GenCon 26, and founded Pariah Press the following year to release an expanded version of the game.[1] In 2003, Ronin Arts purchased The Whispering Vault and started producing new Whispering Vault material almost immediately.[1]
