Hey guys.
Soon I will be running a campaign set in 17th century Europe. The campaign will have a horror/paranormal feel but it won't break our natural laws, maybe only exaggerate them.
What I mostly need help with is creating the weird horror within natural laws, but still make it almost supernatural for a 17th century European person.
Here is an example of what I have in mind.
Party is chasing a vampire who is in fact a mad serial killer with a sever skin condition. Or players might think they are under an influence of a spell or seeing monsters, while actually they've been drugged.
I need stuff like than. Something that could be explained today, but in 17th century, would almost be supernatural. I have more stuff like these prepared, but I'm interested in other people's ideas and perspective.
Thanks!
