[QUOTE="Mannahnin, post: 9133497, member: 7026594"] Just spotted this thread, and I know it's a Necro, but hopefully a timely one, as we enter Autumn. :) I did a Halloween "two shot" a couple of years ago using BigFella Games' The Creepy Crawl, available PDF or POD (I have both) on DrivethruRPG. This is an awesome little sandbox adventure for Labyrinth Lord, set in a haunted mountain pass and designed to be humorous and creepy. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/251715/The-Creepy-Crawl[/URL] It has several different locations themed around different classic horror concepts. A cemetery full of graves to dig up and a couple of crypt mini-dungeons. A small spooky lake with lights beneath it and a bell at the pier to ring and summon an underwater temple from the depths. A decrepit manor inhabited by a mad scientist with multiple monstrous creations and creepily hospitable goon henchmen. A hunting lodge with werewolves. A warren of wererats beneath the area and connecting multiple of the prior locations. Several evocative random encounters including an ax murderer and a spider monster. And a several-story vampire's castle at the other end of the pass where a grand ball full of undead is in progress and the PCs can disguise themselves as undead and join the party. I highly recommend this one, either as-is or just stealing the vampire's castle portion for a shorter session. It's also a mini campaign sourcebook, with three bespoke character classes for Labyrinth Lord or B/X replacing Elves, Dwarves, and Halflings with more thematic alternatives. The Humanculous (Frankenstein's monster, tough character replacing Dwarves) class, Dhampire (half vampire, magical, replaces elves) and the Grimling (creepy little night stalker and grave robber, replaces Halflings). Tegel Manor is a genuine classic, but it sounds like Whizbang is looking for something a little smaller. I've played Palace of the Vampire Queen and my recollection is that the maps are classic OD&D-style warrens, not all that thematic of a haunted mansion, and quite large as well. I do love Castle Amber. I think it's a bit different of a vibe than a spooky vampire's castle, but it's a lot of fun. [/QUOTE]
