This is fantastic! I am going to waste a lot of time looking at this. So much for work.

I didn't know I needed a medieval murder map of my hometown, but I definitely did, and when I next go back I kind of want to treat all the points as a kind of psychogeography walking tour. This is so nicely implemented.

This is great! Might be very helpful for coming up with little side quests around town in my D&D sessions!
