Creepiest place in the game? The Upside-Down Sinners

Inspired by this post on the forums, I decided to venture to Deadwind Pass to check out "The Crypt."

To anyone who has been to Deadwind Pass, you may know of the city (Karazhan) which is where Medivh's Tower is (don't try jumping off his tower. You don't survive) and some blocked off instance gates. A bit past the tower, you'll find a church with a graveyard across from it, and in the graveyard there's a blocked off crypt.

Once you get past the gate, you'll enter an unfinished area. No monsters or anything inside. Just a bunch of rooms with names like "The Tomb of the Unrepentant" or "The Crypt of Criminals."

One lovely room is "The Upside-Down Sinners" and in my opinion, one of the creepiest places in the game.









The link I posted also has some screenshots of the place (and much better ones I might add) but yeah... I can't wait to see this place opened.

Disturbing.


Hey, how did the calendar go along?

Turned out nicely. I got a 97/100 on my final, so that makes me happy. The final version of the calendar will be posted... eventually. I need to go retake some of the pictures and I've been slacking on it.

But wow, surprised some people still remember it. ^^;

More inspiration from Big Trouble in Little China. I dig that movie.

This place creeeeeped me out when I first found it.

According to a guildie, it may be inspired by Big Trouble in Little China. I haven't seen that movie since I was a kid, though, so I couldn't say.

yes this place freaks me out. I went there not long ago and stealth'd around. The crypt is just freaky down there. I most have missed this room though. Hmm time to go back there now.

I agree with the above poster. Your icons do rock. You really need to start making sets for others to use. I know your Horde, but I would love to see some nice NE ones too :D

I'll keep that in mind. Making WoW icons has always been something I've wanted to do, but I'm lazy and forgetful. ^^;

*Shameless plugging* But if you ever want to see any of my other icons, [info]xd_inc is my icon journal. :D

I didn't even know this place existed till you posted screenshots of it. But then, I don't travel Deadwind Pass or explore there much (read: not at all). And yes, it's really, really creepy.

Though I gotta admit that I find that thread on the forums amusing. So many places that are creepy when you're that level (like Duskwood, for instance), but then you get higher level and you realize - it could be a lot worse. Like it's not the Plaguelands. It's not Silithus. It's not Deadwind Pass.

I started earnestly playing around in Burning Steppes and Searing Gorge over last week (yes, even though I'm almost 10 levels above all the highest mobs in Searing Gorge), and I kept on telling my husband, "Man, these places used to scare the bejesus outta me when I even just flew over them. Now, I think it's fairly tame, save for the prospect of running into too many elites in Burning Steppes.

that is the creepiest thing i've ever seen.
it seriously sent chills.

[info]sanitysloss

Yeah. It's an unfinished area inside Karazhan.
