I think most people who see Knight of the Black Rose would say it is fitting for gothic horror. 1) "Contains castle" wasn't the criteria for it being gothic. But castles are an essential feature of gothic, so when you put together a haunting undead knight, romantic and sinister atmosphere, sense of a fear, etc, I'd say it fits well with gothic horror. 2) I am sorry but that chapter isn't high fantasy. One can argue it isn't well done, they don't like it. But that is clearly going for the tragic background of the doomed south character and is completely in keeping with horror and gothic horror. It could also appear in dark fantasy or even a normal fantasy setting as a moment of darkness, but it is clear what the writer was going for. Soth may be a character from a high fantasy story. But he is also the darkest, most horror related character in the setting (and by the time you get to the twins books I would argue the mood is shifting towards something closer to dark fantasy).3) I don't think the cover is okay. I think it is an awful cover for a horror setting, for the reasons I have said. I don't know where you are getting a sense of entitlement from my posts. I am just telling you what I think of the new book cover and the new setting. I don't feel entitled to get the Ravenloft I want at all. But I can weigh in on whether I think WOTC is handling Ravenloft well</blockquote>
