Browsing through eBay, I came upon this.
Now, I've followed Ravenloft for quite some time, and I thought I was familiarized with pretty much every product released, but I'm at a loss about this. It looks like the Forbidden Lore's cover art, with another title.
Do you think it might be fake?

This is one of the "books" in the Black Box set, Realm of Terror

Mmm... I don't think so. I have the Black Box, and it only includes one book (besides the maps and cards) which has the same cover art as the box, which is the one by Clyde Caldwell featuring Strahd about to bite a helpless female.
Maybe you meant the contents from the Red box?

Yes, that book is the Domains and Denizens from the Red Box.
It's substantively the same as the Black Box, except there's been some "2.5" ed. updates. It also features some cool full-page art by Stephen Fabian that the original was missing, including some of Azalin and some of Strahd.
I think that was the first setting that incorporated Madness checks as well.

That must be it, then. Thanks for clarifying.

Yes, they were introduced in Forbidden Lore, and incorporated to the setting with the Red Box.
