12-27-05, 12:34 AM I could easily see a Horror Campaign working in Westgate involving Vampires. The book does a pretty good job of trying to incorporate horrow without adding too many alternate rules or new/strange monsters.

Horror can simply be a style of play and a battle with a Troll, when run in the appropriate fashion, could be just as horrifying as a battle with a Vampire.

However, you could always use the typical Undead = horror type game and run it pretty much anywhere in the realms. Just have the villain be a cleric of Velsharoon or Myrkul (servant of the fallen).

Well, there are the suggestions for horrific campaigns on page 43 of Heroes of Horror...and then the ones on page 51, too.
