Hi everyone! I have something a little special for you today to celebrate the BEST month of the year. I love October and all things spooky (to no one's surprise), so I've been making some updates to my current Death House map to include changes called out in CoS: Reloaded!

Additionally, I also updated the color moods on the current version of Death House, since I had not yet refined my colors back when I created it. I was missing a few of the moods that are standard now.

And for my Foundry crowd, the talented Talanor is working on creating a Foundry module for both the standard and reloaded versions of Death House, and we'll even create a version compatible with Levels! As a thank you for the community support, this release and the Foundry module will be 100% free to all. This post will contain the map files, but I'll update you all once the Foundry module is ready to go as well.

Here is a summary of the changes in this update:

Re-did the color moods so they are aligned with my six standard colors: Gloom, Ghostly, Dark Fairytale, Night, Sunny Day, & Warm

Provided the .png transparent files for each floor beyond the 1st floor (with the basement set in two files since one level is lower than the other).

Added the changes that were called out in DragnaCarta's CoS: Reloaded. These changes include:

1st Floor:

Added the Durst Family portrait above the fireplace, courtesy of the very talented Caleb (Check out his incredible NPC art here!)

Added the grandfather clock in the main room

2nd Floor:

Added the sword on the fireplace mantle with the windmill hilt

3rd Floor:

Added the arcane ruins and pulsating fleshy cysts in Walter's room

Basement:

Added all sorts of (gross) fleshy tendrils and cysts to Walter's crypt

Added a mass of writhing fleshy tentacles to the "boss room"

Added a bundled mound on the altar

Added the words "Feed Him" etched all over the altar and floor of the last room

Once the Foundry module is ready, I will release it in another post. It will be two modules, one for the standard version and one for the Reloaded version, and both will contain an option to use Levels.

Here are some screenshots of the Reloaded changes I made.

I hope you enjoy this little update! And as a reminder, once the Foundry module is ready to go, I'll create another post with the manifest URLs for download.

Happy October all! I have a month of spooky and exciting releases for you all coming up, and I can't wait to share them with you all.Cheers friends,

DM Andy

Hey Andy - beautiful work as always (those Walter details - yuck)! And thank you very much for the shoutout - you’re the best.

Amazing timing. I'm going to be starting a new campaign on the 8th!

Timing couldn't be more perfect I just started a campaign and we are in the first floor still, barely made itr to the kitchen so i'm still on time to update the map! TYSM!

As someone who usually went through the painstaking process of cutting out everything myself to make it work with Levels in Foundry, this makes me very happy and might make me go to the Foundry tier of supporting. Some small things that would make this even better is overhead tiles. In this release, there's only a single roof tile, but I love giving immersion with some overhanging items that are visible even when players are underneath them (in this release the cobwebs would be an excellent candidate for that, but also stuff like lanterns, chandeliers or the wooden beams in the secret staircase).

We just got to the attic so unfortunately missed all the great updates for everything except the dungeon.

Hey Andy! I found your art and was blown away. I'm about to have session zero for Strahd next week and really looking forward to using your maps in the game. I'm pretty new to Foundry and wondering if you have an article for how to unpack and sort a download like this? Or maybe someone else in the community can point me in the right direction? I want to test my setup out with Death House and these beautiful maps! Thanks man!

Fantastic map. I've already used ito in Foundry but I was thinking of running it as a mini adventure for an IRL group. Do you know how I would go about printing this at an appropriate size? I did a trial shot on A3 but it was much too small.
