Before I even start a game

By Pvthudson01, in Arkham Horror Second Edition

It says to draw a Mythos card and do what it says

Does not say to do a Mythos Phase

So before the game even begins…does the spawned monster move or not?

The reading of the first mythos card is essentially equivalent to a mythos phase. The primary difference is that rumors are discarded.

ok thanks

so do all the steps then

Yes, do all the steps.
