The Hunger Below, A Grim Dark Dilemma for 5e PDF

A one-shot grimdark horror adventure for 5e, built for characters around Level 5.

The town of Eldhollow is starving. Crops rot, livestock die stillborn, and whispers spread of a cave in the hills where strange meat never spoils, and those who eat it never quite smile the same.

This adventure drops your players into a desperate town on the brink of collapse, forcing them to choose between order, survival, or bargaining with something ancient and hungry. There are no “good” endings here, only consequences that linger.

Perfect for DMs who want a story-focused, high-stakes adventure that leaves players questioning their choices long after the dice stop rolling.
