Continuing with some highlights of the Ravenloft Adventurer's League season...
Title: The Marionette (DDAL04-04)
Edition: 5th
Starting Level: 3rd (but includes suggestions for anything from 1-4)
Link(s): DDAL04-04 The Marionette (5e) - Wizards of the Coast | Ravenloft | Adventurers League | Dungeon Masters Guild
Summary/Why it's Great: This has been compared to "Death House, part 2." Like many good horror adventures, it's built on a tale of loss and family tragedy. I love the creepy dream-vision ritual at the beginning and the chance to revisit the house as it is now. A haunted house, animated dolls, and a mad necromancer! (Shameless plug: if you choose to run this, I recommend checking my notes on running the adventure: here, here, and here.)
Title: The Tempter (DDAL04-09)
Edition: 5th
Starting Level: 5th (but includes suggestions for scaling up to level 10)
Link(s):
Summary/Why it's Great: The PCs are invited to a lavish party at a prosperous estate, hosted by a beautiful but vain noblewoman. At midnight, all the guests drop dead/turn undead, and the lady of the house becomes a banshee obsessively protecting the family treasure. It turns out they've been reliving this same scenario every day for years. You can really play up the gore for groups that revel in that sort of thing or tone it down for groups that don't.
