Encounters in a Spooky, Dark, Forest

• A comely woman claims to be the wife of a woodcutter who lives in the woods. She invites the footsore party back to her home to rest for the night. She is actually a witch who needs the party’s blood or souls for the ritual that keeps her youthful.
• A mysterious hermit in rags looms over the body of a hind whose heart he has cut out and is currently eating.
• A strange magical experiment gone wrong. Otherwise normal human with tentacles/extra limbs/eyes where they shouldn’t be. It attempts to make peaceful contact but might not know how.
• It turns out that Heart Truffles, a local mushroom delicacy that is currently popular in roadside taverns for miles around, grow exclusively on rotting corpses.
• What at first appears to be a somber funeral procession turns out to be a wedding parade - or vice versa.
