From Introduction: In Fear in Midwinter the party finds itself embroiled in a creepy tale of terror. The simple folk of the sleepy, snowy town of Midwinter are terrified by an evil presence, which threatens them all. The safety and the continued existence of the town seem uncertain. The fearful townsfolk, desperate that the attacks on their homes and families be stopped, turn to the PCs to help them discover what the ghastly apparition is that stalks their town at night, and what part the soothsayer, who arrived at the town predicting doom, has to play.
