One of my most memorable games DM'ing was when my best friend's main PC was actually from Ravenloft. He went through, encountering normal undead, vampires, werewolves, etc and then went on to visit other planes to eventually become a demi-god.Another game I took my players through there and one of them contracted lycanthropy. He went to sleep one night, the full moon came out, and the next morning his clothes were torn. He looked around and noticed body parts of a young woman all over the place and couldn't remember anything, nor how he got there.The same player that had the demi-god character started a new game later on and I actually used the demi-god as an NPC (he was a NE trickster type). He caused the PC to fall asleep and for 8 levels the character was "in Ravenloft" and he left by waking up. I wasn't a jerk though, I allowed him to keep all his gear and levels, they appeared next to his waking form, a gift from the demi-god.I also enjoyed the "madness checks" when someone witnessed something horrifying and could go crazy from the ordeal. Gypsy curses are interesting as well. There is a ton of stuff to do in the plane of Ravenloft and many types of adventures you can run, just keep it dark, dangerous, and foreboding it keeps the players on the edge of their seats!Edit: You got me thinking about how I could easily introduce characters to Ravenloft and I noticed another thread and this is <a href="http://www.enworld.org/forum/general-rpg-discussion/328830-whats-worst-could-happen-2.html#post6010441" target="_blank">my post</a> about a seemingly innocent door and the question about "what's the worst that can happen?"</blockquote>
