A Forgotten Realms twist on the classic manor-house mystery. Join a group of guests that are gathered at a manor near Eveningstar. Research the mis-happenings that take place during the days and nights of your stay. Each day a new guest falls victim and each evening threatens you with creatures of the night. Your days are numbered, can you solve the mystery before you it’s too late? Play the hero and defeat the vampire lord behind it all, but the real measure of your success is how many innocents you manage to save.
