There was an article in Dungeon magazine from last year I think that =
dealt with an animated scarecrow. It was about a miller who refused to =
pay into his local "neighborhood improvement project" and was killed in =
his mill. His spirit then animates a scarecrow and tries to get someone =
to follow him to see what happened to him and right the terrible wrong. =
Some adventurers are hired by the local halfling mayor to do exactly =
that.

I think that it would fit in fine with BR because the problems could =
have been caused by a not so nice guild that took out this renegade =
miller. So, this little haunting problem is really messing things up in =
town. Thus you have a problem with loyalty of a province, a problem =
with a power hungry guild, and a fundamental problem with lack of the =
law regent exercising appropriate control over the province. Sounds =
like fun to me.

I'm planning on running a small adventure that has a Scarecrow(pg. 170 =
MM)
animated by an evil spirit from the SW. I want give him control over a
group of animated dead(Ju-Ju Zombies, Zombies, Skeletons, and maybe 1 or =
2
Ghouls). These dead come from the local cemetary, and are brought back =
by
the same force that animates the Scarecrow. To resolve this the PCs need
only destroy the Scarecrow, or help the town survive the encounter, =
which
should last 3 or 4 days. Before the Scarecrow starts moving north. BTW,
this adventure will take place in a small town in southern Dhoesone.

I've also been thinking about doing a Headless Horseman(or prehaps =
Headless
Knight)encounter. I'm not sure how it would go though, so I may save it =
for
next year. I was thinking of using the Darklord from Ravenloft called =
the
Headless Horseman(I never use him in my RL game)as the villian who pops =
up
once a year from the SW. But like I said this idea still needs more =
work.
