About the adventure

"Under raging storm clouds, the vampire Count Strahd von Zarovich stands silhouetted against the ancient walls of his magnificant castle. Rumbling thunder and streaking lightning bolts shatter the sky above. The howling of the stormy gale increases as he turns his impassionate gaze to the vast, forest-covered valley of Barovia. Another lightning flash rips through the darkness, suddenly Strahd is gone! The master of Castle Ravenloft is having guests for dinner. And you are all invited..." This gothic horror themed adventure will draw you into a nightmarish realm of darkness and terror, those with a steely mind and a good sword arm may just survive long enough to discover the secrets of Barovia and the dreaded Strahd himself. Who knows, perhaps the legends are true, and those destined to bring an end to his reign of terror have finally arrived. This campaign is suited to all players, both newbies and veterans alike. A heavily-homebrewed version of the official module, we begin with a delightfully-spooky introduction to the game. You can rest assured that you will have the skills needed to survive before things REALLY start to go out of control..
