Inspired by this, the team at Beadle & Grimm’s decided to make some finger puppets to include in the box, which are called out as Blinsky Toys in Chapter 5 of the adventure.

Removing the contents of that massive container, I found a carefully wrapped Curse of Strahd box, a rather large poster tube, and…a bag of finger puppets? That’s right, puppets. What’s In Beadle & Grimm’s Curse of Strahd Legendary Edition? Time to unbox this bad boy and see all the goodies that Beadle & Grimm’s had squeezed inside. I could already tell that this was going to be an epic Dungeons & Dragons experience. Opening it up, this is what I found inside: Inside the shipping box. As there’s nothing in the picture to really give a good idea of scale, let me just say that the box is just over two feet in length. Recently, a rather hefty box showed up on my doorstep.

Some Spoilers for Curse of Strahd Campaign Ahead! A mighty big box. Much like I did with Icewind Dale, this won’t be a review of the module itself, but rather of what Beadle & Grimm’s have done with Curse of Strahd to enhance the gameplay experience. And if you really don’t mind spoilers for a campaign, then Simon Yule chronicled his entire Strahd campaign in a series of Player Reports. You can read Rory Bristol’s review on GeekDad here. The original Curse of Strahd was published in 2016, and is a D&D 5e reimagining of the 1983 Ravenloft module. For the first time, they have now produced a Legendary Edition with Curse of Strahd, revisiting an older Wizards of the Coast module and giving it that special Beadle & Grimm’s attention. Previously, there were three different edition tiers that B&G produced: Silver, Gold, and Platinum. If you read my previous review of the Silver Edition of Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden, then you already know that Beadle & Grimm’s pack D&D modules with all sorts of gamer goodness.
