Or is it an expansion to the first expansion?
Exponention.
The Dreamlands
Amanda Sharpe (confirmed by FFG)
Luke Robinson (confirmed by FFG)
Kate Winthrop (confirmed by KBlumhardt)
Gloria Goldberg - AH's Other Worlds expert
"Ashcan" Pete - his AH Personal Story was dreamland-related
William Yorick - fighter type
Darrell Simmons - his AH Personal Story was OW related, even though ability is city-related
Bob Jenkins - because Vincent and Carolyn probably go together, and Roland Banks is a likely OBS guy, the same as Darrell?
leaving for the next small box expansion
Carolyn Fern
Vincent Lee
Rita Young
Roland Banks
...and now William Yorick has been confirmed (and Amanda is looking much better with that new Talent!).
We're halfway there!

Indeed! Justice vs. a previous poster pooh-poohing the idea of William Yorick being in this one:) but hey, we're all friends in horror here.
Let's see how we do for the rest...seems like it's been a while since the last release!

Nice! Puts us likely at a late December/early January release.
I can understand the likely predictions for the investigators based upon Cthulhu lore (Lovecraft or otherwise).
The other investigator guesses are based on how they behave in other Arkham Horror games.
Do the investigators share enough abilities/traits from different games so that they behave similar?
I know Lily Chen works similar in both Eldritch Horror and Elder Sign, but I don't own enough of the expansions to know for sure.
Do the investigators share enough abilities/traits from different games so that they behave similar?
In general, investigators and their abilities/lore are quite similar between Arkham Horror files games.
In particular, Eldritch Horror investigators often have abilities directly adapted from Arkham Horror.
It seems I have the pleasure of being your (/our) messenger of dreams.
Third Preview: "Against the Night Sky":
https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/news/2016/11/21/against-the-night-sky/
This time, disturbing your sleep with wondrous visions of the Dreamlands themselves and terrifying images of the Ancient Ones
lurking beyond the veil of night.
Nooo Hypnos! you were the chosen one!
You were supposed to guard us against the Ancient Ones, not join them!
First board in a big expansion with 7 instead of 6 locations, quite interesting because it shows us, the 6-location-per-sidemap are not mandatory for things to come. I still hope for a New England expansion in the future and there would be more than only 6 locations which I consider essential for a "Lovecraft Country"-expansion set: Arkham (not only an entrance to the map like the Pyramids and Antarctica but also a real location), Innsmouth, Dunwich, Kingsport, Boston, Providence, perhaps one more wilderness locations (Southern Vermont - The Whisperer in the Darkness?) and New York (Horror in Red Hook and other stories).

So much Arkham so little time. What a time to be playing Arkham Files games.

Yes indeed - I tried Elder Sign but not as excited about it, and Mansions of Madness scares me because I know what it would do to my wallet:(
so I'm sticking with AH and EH. How long can I hold out....
happy holidays all!
Do we know yet how many investigators will be included? Anyone else confirmed besides Kate, Amanda, Luke and William?

8, and unfortunately no.

Do you know there are 8 or is that a guess based on the last 2 big boxes?

That's great. We have more surprises coming!

Yep. The investigator count has been mentioned in nearly every update and promo for the expansion.
So... now that the expansion is officially in stores, will somebody
please
post the full list of investigators? I was dumb and decided to save some money on shipping by putting a bunch of games on the same order, including Beyond The Threshold, meaning I'm going to have to wait a whole 'nother week and some change to get my copy. It's going to be excruciating... but the investigator list would certainly help!

A kind soul posted pics of all of them on BGG. They look great!
