Step into the dim halls and bloodstained courtyards of 15th-century Wallachia, where being a noble wasn’t a privilege — it was a warning sign. In this slow, immersive descent through paranoia, performance, and political cruelty, you experience firsthand what it meant to dine in Vlad the Impaler’s court… and how quickly a feast turned into a funeral.

This is not a tale of rebellion. This is not a story of villains and heroes. It’s a story about visibility. And what happens when power needs an audience — and an example.

If you enjoy dark, quiet, immersive histories told like bedtime stories for people who can’t sleep, you’re in the right place.
