Beware the Tales Told In Darkness

Childhood legends, ghost stories and cautionary tales take on a life of their own when surrounded by the Mists of Ravenloft. From the immortal creature destined to eternal wandering to the sinister tailor known as Scissorman, from the family whose members all have dark secrets to a wedding night shattered by horror and the house that relives the atrocity at its core, five stories of classic terror become a setting for bold adventurers - or helpless victims.

This book revisits the old-fashioned horror story as viewed through the lens of Ravenloft and provides players and DMs with a chance to rewrite a horrific ending, or become part of the recurring nightmare. Techniques for turning stories into games and adapting a tale to suit a particular group offer a handbook for creating - and playing - one-of-a-kind adventures that touch upon heroes’ deepest fears.
