Eight years have passed since the popular Van Richten's Guide series debuted and redefined the way Dungeon Masters and players view monsters of the horror genre. Since then, creatures of the night have displayed unexpected and devastating powers in AD&D games, giving player characters new reasons to be very afraid. This compilation of Van Richten's Guide to Ghosts, the Lich, and the Ancient Dead is the second of three volumes that will introduce the famous monster hunter and his methods to a new generation of roleplayers. Updated and annotated by the heirs to Van Richten's legacy, this series imitates the physical format of the AD&D Wizard's and Priest's Spell Compendiums, as this information is useful to any AD&D campaign, in any setting.
