There are few spookier things than buzzing sound of monsters teleporting in and immediately attacking. leave Dimensional Shamblers in the final part intact. unstable, braindead, mindlessly destructive villagers (or fostered) who break down (or explode) into gelatinous puddles of green goo upon death. Replace all unique monster room encounters with variant Mi-Go and their creations: Also, it shows the PCs that, nasty as the town's deal with the skum was, something has gone terribly wrong with it now.
