Move over Baldur's Gate, Ravenloft: The Horrors Within is bringing back my favorite D&D setting

Count Strahd von Zarovich with glowing red eyes lounges in a throne while holding a glass of blood in his clawed hand, a feast of bones on a table in front of him.

Prepare your finest stakes and break out the garlic, because D&D is going through another gothic phase in 2026 with Ravenloft: The Horrors Within.

Announced during GAMA: The Tabletop Game Association in Louisville, KY, this new sourcebook returns to the realm of popular D&D baddie Strahd von Zarovich (who's basically Dracula with added narcissism and a penchant for drama) alongside other Domains of Dread. These rub shoulders with horror-inspired subclasses, species, and backgrounds that haven't been seen in one of the best tabletop RPGs before.
