[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 9502533, member: 6802378"] In the right hands the dragons can be very dreadful. We have got the brainstealer dragon, but also the linnords, enough smart to create their own Lovecraftian cults, and the forgotten planar dragons from the lower planes. WotC doesn't worry too much Ravenloft was pure gothic horror but to be sold enoughly. If players want action-horror style "Resident Evil" movie then it will be like this. There are several horror settings by 3PPs. If you want you can create a mash-up for you own game. What about "Shadows over Vathak" by Fat Gobling Games, the lost Citadel by Green Ronin or Obsidian Apocalypse by LPJ Design? It is like saying "this has to be like a heavy-metal song" but "what metal subgenre"? [MEDIA=youtube]w4mwob42H84[/MEDIA] * Dark Fantasy is when the hero can defeat the evil lord, horror is when the main goal is the survival. * Do you know the Japanese horror+comedy movie "Hausu"? Yes, it is very bizzare. It is not gothic at all, but it may be Ravenloft, or source of inspiration for a new domain. [/QUOTE]
