Encounters in a Spooky, Dark, Forest

Encounters in a Spooky, Dark, Forest

• Shrieking bats swoop down in the night and try to feast on the blood of the party or their mounts.
• A lone hanging tree stands in a clearing, with desiccated corpses still dangling from decrepit ropes.
• Shambling corpses wander out of a nearby peat bog. They move very slowly due to lead balls weighing down their bodies.
• A vampire’s thrall drives a carriage with a coffin in the back containing his master. He appears to be in a hurry.
• The rain currently falling turns out not to be water but rather some strange substance such as blood or mercury.
