My problem with your argument is that you're acting as if WotC did nothing to promote the mechanics that would make Ravenloft actually scary to play in. They did include Fear and Stress mechanics (Stress is very nasty if you get too much of it), and even created a new system for Survivor characters. Go run and adventure for a PC who uses the Survivor stat blocks, add in the Fear and Stress mechanics, include some of the horrifying implications and monsters from Ravenloft, and you've got a great horror game.There are mechanics to support the horror theme of Ravenloft. Yes, other games may be better built for being horror, but that doesn't mean D&D 5e literally cannot do horror at all.</blockquote>
