## Resource

What if Curse of Strahd took place on a vampire pirate ship? In this Pirate Borg deep dive we break down Into the Maelstrom, a gothic horror adventure set aboard a haunted ship in the Dark Caribbean. We break down how the adventure works, how to run it as a 4-hour one-shot, and how to expand it into a full campaign across the Dark Caribbean. We also demonstrate the Three-Eyed Parrot card reading mechanic, discuss the terrifying pelagic vampires, and walk through the massive haunted ship The Maelstrom deck-by-deck.
