The Draugr, reanimated dead imbued with magical powers, have come to the region of Trøndelag seeking to corrupt the town of Stjørdal. Only you, a lone revenant hunter, can protect the town and slay they who walk again. Armed with limited supply of holy water and iron spikes you enter the town square and prepare for the coming onslaught. Todd Sanders’ "dreadful" game pits you against any combination of the original 6 Draugr plus the 3 "expansion" Draugr. Optional rules add extra levels of difficulties, and a haunting soundtrack creates a completely immersive experience.
