About the adventure
"Curse of Strahd" beckons you into a world of gothic horror, where shadows whisper of forgotten lore and a brooding menace hangs in the air. Amidst the ancient, storm-wracked walls of Castle Ravenloft, the vampire Count Strahd von Zarovich schemes in the heart of his foreboding domain. As thunder roars and lightning illuminates the twisted spires, you and your party of adventurers find yourselves drawn into the Count's deadly web of intrigue. Strahd, a figure of chilling power and tragic despair, awaits your arrival with chilling anticipation. Will you succumb to the terrifying allure of his dark plan, or can you unravel the secrets of this cursed land and free it from its eternal night? In this epic tale of bravery and dread, remember, the master of Ravenloft is having guests for dinner. You are cordially invited.
Survive the mists and a vampiric tyrant in a battle of wits in Barovia.
