Tales from the Dark Tower, published in 2000-2003, is a book of short horror tales written by the gothic fantasy artist and musician Joseph Vargo. It was a collaboration between Vargo and a group of other writers, who contributed stories based directly on Vargo’s artwork. (One of the reasons Vargo left Midnight Syndicate was to work on this project.)Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })The books follow the story of Lord Brom, a vampire who guards the menacing Dark Tower in the fictional Romanian town of Vasaria. His story is initially a framing device for the lore and history of Vasaria, but later books focus more on the main plot as Brom struggles to defend Vasaria from an ancient evil.Two sequels followed, titled Beyond the Dark Tower and Return to the Dark Tower. They were published in 2011 and 2015, respectively, each written only by Vargo and by Joseph Iorillo. In 2011, Nox Arcana’s album The Dark Tower was released to accompany the books. Several of the tales share titles with Nox Arcana tracks.Not to be confused with The Dark Tower. |

Burn the Witch!: Or the vampire, rather. Iliana is burned at the stake after the villagers realize she had been a vampire, though she had tragically regained her humanity by that point. |
