I think I was hoping for more horror rooted in how terrifying it would have been to be alive in the dark ages? I wouldn’t really call any of these stories horror, they’re more like DnD meets medieval Christian fanfic. 

I enjoyed the third story most and think it would be a rad concept for a DnD campaign, but each story can be summed up as such: 3/4 long winded exposition, one big hellmouth, and a LOT of swordfighting and monologues til a lackluster finish.  

I really wanted to like this one, but I don’t find any of the concepts particularly scary and the action scenes really left something to be desired.
