WE DO NOT GO TO FUCKING RAVENHOLM. HOLY SHIT.
A term given to any level in any video game that comes the fuck out of nowhere, is never spoken of again, and is designed to be nothing but nightmare fodder.
Named for the ridiculously hellish zombie level of Half Life 2, Ravenholms are those levels in video games that you will see in your dreams.
