A House Mystery is a Mystery taught by one of the four Mystery Houses: House Bjornaer, House Criamon, House Merinita, or House Verditius. All House Mysteries are described in the ArM5 supplement, Houses of Hermes: Mystery Cults.

Each Mystery House teaches more than one Mystery. The first Mystery, known by all members of the House, is called its Outer Mystery. Each Mystery House then has different terms and a different progression toward progressively deeper mysteries.
