We’ve had a lot of Ravenloft accessories arrive in the shop recently.  Three modules caught my attention for additional photos.

One aspect of the old Ravenloft modules I enjoy are the isometric maps that you see throughout the setting. This was the first time (I believe) that TSR used that map style consistently in an Advanced Dungeons & Dragons product line. Isometric maps convey a “you are there” atmosphere.

RA1 also came with a poster of the cover art by Clyde Caldwell, though these posters will often be missing from used copies.

The Created you can think of as “Chucky horror movie” in the Ravenloft setting. Our game group ran into this construct during our recent Curse of Strahd mini-campaign. 

Guiseppe’s Toy Shop is the centerpiece of the adventure.

I just noticed that longtime classic TSR artist David C. Sutherland drew the map for The Created.
