Covering all things Curse of Strahd and Ravenloft. Focused on D&D 5E (5th edition), but also referring to the older lore, especially on the Ravenloft side of things.
Naturally, this channel contains SPOILERS for Curse of Strahd and Ravenloft content. So if you're a player in an active CoS/Ravenloft game then (as much as it pains me to say this) please don't watch! This is 'DMs only' type stuff.
Check out my resources on DMsGuild, which includes the 3-Pile Tarokka Technique, which helps with running the tarokka reading during Curse of Strahd, and the Second Tarokka Reading, a supplement for running a Ravenloft domain-hopping campaign as a sequel to Curse of Strahd.
I'm also an epic fantasy writer! My first novel - DEMONS I: The Birth of Magic - is out now! Very D&D-inspired (although perhaps more Forgotten Realms and Honor Among Thieves in style than Ravenloft). Find out more at stevemorganauthor.com!
Banner art by EJB (not on social media and not taking on commissions).

NEW EMOJI: Ez d'Avenir!
One of the Mist Wanderer NPCs - and one of my fave NPCs in both Curse of Strahd and wider Ravenloft.
To use the Ez emoji, type :ezmerelda: in a comment on one of my videos (or hit the emoji button and it should show up as an option). Note: I would've gone with just :ez: but it had to be at least 3 characters long.
It's only available to members of the channel - so if you'd like to use this and the other CoS/Ravenloft emoji, you can find out more about becoming a member here: youtube.com/@DMoftheMists...
I'll do another members-only poll (for WEREWOLF 🐺 members and up) for choosing the next emoji design. People will be able choose between Jander, Madam Eva, Dr. Viktra Mordenheim or Alanik Ray.
Cheers!

It’s here! 😃 Huzzah! Beautiful book. First time I've gotten the alt cover of a D&D book, too. 📖

Upcoming release schedule
Hello! There's two sides to this post...
1) I'm going away for a few days soon, so the next video will be delayed (I don't like putting videos out while I'm away because I want to be around to respond to comments, etc.). I usually aim for putting out a video weekly, but the next one will be beginning of June.
2) As you likely know, I try to be 50/50 with the Curse of Strahd and Ravenloft videos, alternating between the two. However, with Ravenloft: The Horrors Within coming out in June, I'll likely do more Ravenloft than CoS videos over the next month or so. I'll still do CoS videos, and I should still do the same amount of CoS videos I'd normally do if it were any other time, but I just wanted to explain - just in case there's CoS fans who don't have much interest in THW who worry I'm transitioning to doing more Ravenloft stuff permanently (I'm not).
Hope that's ok. Cheers all!

I've been interviewed by fellow British D&D YouTuber @robodad1, chatting about Curse of Strahd, Ravenloft (including the upcoming The Horrors Within book) & demoing one of my tarokka DMsGuild resources! Check it out!

NEW EMOJI: Ireena (both versions)
Hi folks! As part of YouTube's membership features, I can upload custom emoji. I started off with 4 that I adapted from the banner - Strahd, van Richten, me, my cat Mel (R.I.P.) 😿 - and the more members I get, the more I can upload.
I can now upload 6 emoji total - so I thought I'd do Ireena next! I got both versions done, as some DMs have her be darker-skinned and others have her be lighter-skinned.
To use the lighter-skinned version, type :ireenaw: in a comment on one of my videos.
To use the darker-skinned version, type :ireenab: in a comment on one of my videos.
It's only available to members of the channel - so if you'd like to use them, you can find out more about becoming a member here: youtube.com/@DMoftheMists/join
It's the same artist who did the banner image (EJB), who's a player of mine in my weekly home game (she plays the Wizard PC I sometimes talk about).
Also, I'm more than happy for people to turn these into tokens and to use them in your own Curse of Strahd games, if you wish to.
I'm going to do a members-only poll (for WEREWOLF 🐺 members only) for choosing the next emoji design. People will be able choose between Ezmerelda, Jander, Azalin Rex or Dr. Viktra Mordenheim.
Thanks!
