I heard of Horror at Red Hook, a lesser known HPL story, somewhere on Yog-Sothoth a while back and finally started reading it. I like the adventure possibilities, set in the docks of the Bronx. I was wondering if it had been turned into an adventure by anybody. My current 1927 game is set around New York and an adaptation of it is gnawing at my consciousness.

Not that I am aware, although there are three sequels to my knowledge. _________________ --

Hi Woozle,
As Mograg said, we recently released The Horror at Redhook: The Cold Case of Robert Suydam. It picks up a number of years after the short story and includes some of the characters from the story and an investigation into what happened in Red Hook and what was left behind.
It was written by long time game industry author Rick Dakan and is the first in our new line of After Lovecraft adventures that take the stories and builds on them.

Got it. Book is rather small. Folio-sized and 75 pages long. About 20 pages are actually "The Horror at Red Hook" and there is a link to the Super Genius website where you can download "The Horror at Red Hook" as well.
Haven't read it yet but it looks pretty good. A little pricey but it looks like you actually get a lot. _________________ "A straight line may well be the shortest distance between two points, but it is by no means the most interesting"

There's another discussion currently going on about the follow ups to Red Hook, there are indeed 3 adventures written, the one above being the most recent.
