For AD&D 1E - Ravenloft (the module) and Forgotten Temple of Tharizdun.<br /><br />In the OSR, I'd consider Cursed Chateau and Blood Moon Rising.<br /><br />I haven't been able to get Finch's Spire of Iron and Crystal, it's off the shelf right now.<br /><br />Our two campaigns have a lot of similar themes, so a bunch of these are seeded into my game as well.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18031181424520125213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5831219200072513986.post-80694367407206541652011-03-04T03:38:06.066-05:002011-03-04T03:38:06.066-05:00Maliszewski's Cursed Chateau.
Talanian's ...Maliszewski's Cursed Chateau.<br /><br />Talanian's Charnel Crypt of the Sightless Serpent<br /><br />Finch's Spire of Iron and Crystal<br /><br />Kuntz's Cairn of the Skeleton King + Tower of Blood<br /><br />And from the first wave (using just the module codes)...<br /><br />In Search of the Unknown, Keep on the Borderlands, and Horror on the Hill make a classic old-school mini-setting (just make Guido's Fort = The Keep), and it hits the theme more closely if you make this the *one* place that humanoids are gathering, and combine it with the old Warhammer Doomstones module Death Rock to make everything threatening and in-motion rather than a static sandboxy thing)<br /><br />Put 'em on a boat and send them to the Isle of Dread (and put the Dwellers of the Forbidden City city up on the plateau, and the Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan dungeon within that city)<br /><br />The Secret of Bone Hill-Assassin's Knot combo works pretty good, N1 has a good atmosphere.<br /><br />Tomb of Horrors and Expedition to the Barrier Peaks work well (the S series is all good but White Plume Mountain and Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth feel a lot more "standard D&D" to me, although the Tsojcanth-Tharizdun module combo can be pretty dark). <br /><br />Village of Hommlet by itself (forget the Temple of Elemental Evil) can be a really cool Hammer Horror style village-in-peril adventure.<br /><br />Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh by itself, without the rest of the series.<br /><br />Master of the Desert Nomads and Temple of Death have a LOT of really great bits even if you don't want the epic overland mini-campaign.<br /><br />Those old Warhammer modules are really great - the first four Doomstone adventures really all have great bits (originally conceived as D&D adventures as I recall), Lichemaster, Death's Dark Shadow, a lot of the pieces of The Enemy Within (especially from Death on the Reik) work great.JimLotFPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992397707040836366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5831219200072513986.post-6062371784110129192011-03-04T03:18:56.887-05:002011-03-04T03:18:56.887-05:00Don't discount other systems either; it sounds...Don't discount other systems either; it sounds as if <i>Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay</i> scenarios might fit in quite well with your setting.

Also, <a href="http://www.wizards.com/dnd/files/notwd.pdf" rel="nofollow">Night of the Walking Dead</a> is a low level Ravenloft adventure which is available for free at WotC. The original <a href="http://www.wizards.com/dnd/article.asp?x=dnd/dx20020121x7" rel="nofollow">Palace of the Silver Princess</a> is also a kickass module, although you have to fix the dungeon map a bit.<br /><br />Between the Raggi's module my favorite is definitely Death Frost Doom, although Hammers of the God is particularly indicated as a great example of "dark fantasy", but you probably already know that.<br /><br />Also, if you can manage to find it, I remember something about a "reprint" of Palace of the Vampire Queen.Il Male™https://www.blogger.com/profile/02699384706214815033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5831219200072513986.post-33684795250518201122011-03-04T00:53:18.139-05:002011-03-04T00:53:18.139-05:00I find you can rarely go wrong with Chateau d'...I find you can rarely go wrong with Chateau d'Amberville--though you'd likely want to tone down the "funhouse dungeon" aspect and crank up the "degenerate family of nobles in bizarre private domain" bits.Jaysonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03652611193354218021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5831219200072513986.post-40558011901842493962011-03-04T00:45:16.460-05:002011-03-04T00:45:16.460-05:00Hmm.
