Manuxet River

The Manuxet river runs through the centre of the town of Innsmouth, thus dividing the town in two.

Role in the game
During the time of the game (which is mid-February) the river will be mostly frozen. After the US Army launches the attack on the town, Robert Marsh, along with the Order's followers, will barricade the entrance to the Masonic Hall by creating a magical barrier to prevent Marines from entering.

After some scouts learn of a hidden passage that goes from the Hall to the Manuxet, Jack will be among those who will be given the order to try and take this route into the building. Their attempt at doing so will fail though, with almost all men either killed by the encircling armed citizens or by falling through the ice into the frozen water.

Trivia

 * At the mouth of the river it is possible to see Marines beating down the Deep Ones
