Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Pretty Good but no INFORMATION that helps
Review: This is a boring campaign w/stupid rules. Don't bother with it..

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The original that started it all...
Review: This module is the stand alone adventure that introduced Strahd Von Zarovich and the land of Barovia that eventually grew to be the entire Ravenloft campaign setting. Even if we disregard what came later, this adventure is astoundingly good. The maps are incredible, the emphasis on character interaction rather than hack-n-slash fighting is apreciated, and the use of cards to randomly determine key elements of the plot insures that the story will be different every time you run it. Even 2 decades after it was published this one has held up surprisingly well and compares favorably to the modules that are currently out today.

Summary: One of the best AD&D modules of all time.
Review: Tracy and Laura Hickman of DragonLance fame authored this fantastic module. This module introduced gothic horror to the Dungeons and Dragons game and formed the basis for the entire Ravenloft campaign setting. The module itself is beautifully rendered. The artwork, maps, and accessories are all first rate. The Hickmans bring the villain Strahd to life and make him much more than just a blood-sucking vampire. His motivations are well thought out and quite plausible. Although, I do not play in the Ravenloft campaign setting very often, this module will always have a special place in my heart. And remember. The mists of Ravenloft know no bounds. You just might end up invited to the House of Strahd as a dinner guest!
