One of the best quests in Baldur's Gate 3 is also its scariest, and it doesn't have anything to do with ghosts or vampires

Baldur's Gate 3 has a lot of quests that feel resonant around this particularly spooky time of year. It has an elaborate haunted house that unravels a sordid saga of love and betrayal. It has vampires and vampire hunters. It has shadow monsters that hide in plain sight until you trigger an ambush. But none of these segments got my heart pumping as much as my trip down to the Iron Throne. Aesthetically, this return to our old pal Sarevok's sunken stomping grounds isn't nearly the creepiest or most unsettling part of the adventure.
