Really, you cannot go wrong with many of the "30 Greatest D&D Adventures of All Time" (circa 2004). I’d purchase Dungeon 116 just for that article if you don’t own it already. Here are some of my favorites from that list:

● G1-3 Against the Giants: Massive dungeon crawls featuring giants. Play it off as an invasion into your campaign’s key kingdom. Lots of fun to be had. (I didn’t much care for the rest of the Queen of Spiders series.)

● I6 Ravenloft: a classic dungeon crawl turned into a horror/love story.

● Return to the Tomb of Horrors: better than the original, recommended only if your group loves a ridiculously difficult challenge.

● Temple of Elemental Evil: if you can get a hold of the PC game they made for this and incorporate elements from it, it runs much smoother than the mega-dungeon it originally was.

● I3 Pharaoh: turns from desert survival into an epic quest. Again, I liked it more than the rest of the series.

● Forge of Fury: I thought it was the best of the 3E modules produced by WOTC. It has a lot going on in just one adventure.

● X1 Isle of Dread: If you love pulp exploration adventures, it doesn’t get much better than this.

● U1-U3 Saltmarsh series: really well done for its time, and you can drop these in about anywhere in your campaign world.

Here are ones I loved that didn’t make the list:

● UK7 Dark Clouds Gather: a very interesting adventure. I hate to say more without spoiling it, but it has “snow demons”, a cloud castle, and a flying ship. It is a lot of fun.

● Evil Unearthed: Dungeon magazine #82; basically it is the adventure that “inspired” Keep on the Shadowfell, but much shorter (and not 4E if that matters). Great for running at conventions as well.

● Night of the Walking Dead: A Ravenloft campaign module. It is pretty much a zombie survival game set in a Louisiana-style bayou setting, complete with French names and Vodou practitioners....

Nice list. The G series is the first thing I ever ran.

Isle of the Dread...I copied that a dozen times, each time in its own way. TOO classic. :)

Shadow Lodge

Spire of Iron and Crystal is awesome.

Return to the Tomb of Horrors, although a huge adventure rather than a single dungeon, is probably, for me, the best adventure TSR ever put out. Nothing that WotC or Paizo has put out has touched it.

And if you wanna go big, go Rappan Athuk.
