Are there any dark grave yard maps made in Doom?

[Divided2]

I'm working on a creepy mod for Doom 1 and I'm looking for ideas. I'm thinking of creating a level set in a dark graveyard, filled with disturbing sounds and demons, similar style to the Ghoul Doom mod series xd.

 

 

That's why I'm searching for a graveyard-themed map (preferably a dark one, for Doom 1, but any will do).

 

If any of you know of any good maps that fit this description, I would really appreciate it!

The only cool one I played was the Unloved map 04 you can check, where a small part of the map is a graveyard type, with a yellow key or something. There when you pickup the key the dead monsters will rise up, making the place a trap. The atmosphere is creepy as well. It's very small though compared to the map size but I found the idea pretty good.

Myhouse.wad may give you more ideas than you asked for.

while it starts in a regular home it quicly becomes a decent to madness.

Scythe map16 Burial Grounds takes place in a graveyard, but I'm sure that's not the dark and moody thing you're looking for.

@dmh094 had a map like that, don't know if it's finished! There is also a Graveyard area in @The Royal We's map "Hunted Forest" in Ramp 2022.

Icarus map 22 is set in a graveyard at night, with names of creators written on the graves, which is very spooky!

There's a cool graveyard map in Midnight - MAP04 iirc.

Maps with graveyards in them perhaps: Map 16 of Doomed Urbex, Blood-inspired Hillside Siege from a few years ago and Night on Doom Mountain are all maps that have graveyards in them and they're certainly not the only ones either. I know of a couple of 90s maps which contain them but not off the top of my head. A secret map  in Doom 2 in City Only has a graveyard in one section.

"Graveyard Shift" its called :) map itself is done but the wad is at a standstill. For some reason I don't work with otex very well. Not sure whether to just release the map on its own or not. What do you think?

I liked the map, @Divided2 would probably love to play it!

[dmh094]

Alright. might do a release soon! Don't wanna clog up the forum too much though. I've got a release coming in the next 24 hours :)

Not Doom, but I always liked the Graveyard map in Heretic! It's E1M9 iirc

Ah nice, that sounds like what I'm looking for, as for my map I was thinking of some sort of monster rising thing from graves, this is a great map for ideas ❤️

I heard of that map lol, didn't know it had a grave yard map in it, I've just been too scared to play it but I'll give it a go xd.

I applied this idea on the first map of my current project, it's pretty cool :D If you are interested I can show you.

MAP22: Rosewood from Cleimos II has a lovely graveyard, complete with starry night sky no less.

[LadyMistDragon]

Oh, I suppose Map 29 of Epic 2 Mortuary has one but it's really more of what the title says, with some scattered graves.

[Gothic]

The City of the Damned: Apocalypse

The only creepy graveyard I can think for Doom 1 is this area from Sigil 2

I would also suggest playing Blood if you want inspiration for creepy atmosphere. The very first level is a dark graveyard.

But btw, what's the map name for that grave yard level for The City of the Damned: Apocalypse?

The Sigil mod is meh, and the Blood mod you already told me which map by telling me it was the first level xd.
