Picture this...
Scooby and the gang are driving around Europe in the Mystery Machine. They're doing their whole solving mysteries schtick, but one night they encounter a strange mist that engulfs the van. They can barely see through it.
"Zoinks, man, this mist is, like, creepy," Shaggy says from the passenger seat, swallowing audibly.
"Ruh-roh--RAGGY!!!" whimpers Scooby, shivering in Shaggy's lap.
"Relax, Scoob, I'm an expert driver," is Fred's response.
Velma and Daphne wake up in the back.
"Jinkies, Fred, what's going on?" asks Velma.
"Jeepers, I can't see a thing out there," chimes Daphne, putting a hand on Fred's shoulder.
The gang drives on, Fred white knuckled on the steering wheel, until the mist suddenly clears. They all see an odd-looking street sign that reads
Barovia, 8 miles.
"Like, Barovia. Where's that, man?" asks Shaggy.
"I don't see it on any of the maps," explains Velma, flipping through her Rand McNally Road Atlas of Europe.
"And I've never heard of any place called 'Barovia'!" The lightning strikes outside and a light rain begins to fall.
"Looks like we've got another mystery on our hands," says Fred, turning the van in the direction of the sign.

In this modern retelling of the Ravenloft Campaign for D&D 5E, each player will take the role of Freddy, Daphne, Velma, Shaggy, or Scooby and make a 5E Modern version of that character.
The Gang will face a modernized, gothic-punk version of the Ravenloft setting that will be one part horror, one part hilarity.
Before my co-GM and I do the work of modernizing things, which shouldn't be TOO bad, we wanted to see if there was enough interest to fill the necessary roles.
