Thanks for all the kind comments and endorsements! Also, big thanks to Bethesda for featuring my mod (twice now)!

Hello I had this mod on Xbox along time ago I play on pc as I build private mods for myself now this was the NUMBER ONE mod I used for my vampire is there is anyway to get this for skyrim LE would be amazing
Let me start by saying that I love this mod and that its probably the BEST vampire home I've found. Valdmire Castle for instance is way too out in the open for a vampire home and not off somewhere more sensible, most other crypt/mausoleum/steeple homes are really small and unimaginative (I personally don't like how the Tomb of Pelagius just has bodies mixed in everywhere, undeath does not remove a desire for cleanliness.), and some like The Shrouded Lair or Raven Castle are just too huge or seem like wasted space (I'm also not a big fan of lots of copy-paste NPCs being added to larger homes). And overall, none really capture what I would call a proper vampiric feel like yours does, especially with the amenities you've included. So having said all that, the question I now have is: Have you ever considered making another vampire home as a sort of upgrade? For those who want to eventually live the more stylish vampiric lifestyle outside of a cave. A small castle or mansion tucked away in Hjaalmarch, Eastmarch, or a mountain top somewhere, a bit bigger and a bit more lavish for a spooky lord to lurk in with a few friends.
Appreciate the kind words. Really cool to see people still enjoying this mod a few years later.
I had actually started a more expansive full rebuild of this a couple years ago that would add more features. One example was to have it start out super small and that the player would build it out over time. However, life got in the way and I basically only got the entrance redone and ended up scrapping it.
really love this player home. is my personal favorite among all the vampire player homes. well organized. all the little craft tables and ambience that i want. no overpowered items lingering in secret closets. very balanced for a starting vampire character. Endorsed !
Great mod. Clever pick for the location aswell, inside an already existing cave, so no need to rerun DynDOLOD. And it is on the complete opposite side of the map of Castle Volkihar, which is great too. It's like a vampire outpost :p
My kingdom for a Vampire House Mod that doesn't fit vampire clichés. I'd love to see a well-made Vampire home that actually feels cozy and comfortable. Something that would suit your average cattle while still having the amenities vampires like. No stereotype coffin, but an actual bed. A house that looks like any other home while having secret access to rooms catering to more vampiric needs. A home for the civilized vampire that blends in with the cattle instead of a dank and moldy cave with purple flames and cobwebs.
Karlov Manor (not on Nexus) has a lot of hidden rooms, but is more for screenshotting than being a practical player home. It does have vampire cattle and also has a few toggles for cleaning things up, but it's very... packed with clutter if that makes sense.
Personally, I'm using Crypt as my early game player hideout and Valdmire as my late game home on my playthrough.
They work the same as the ones in the Hearthfire DLC homes that give you mead. All I did was copy them and change the name and which items you receive. I honestly don't remember how much time must pass to be able to use them again and don't have the game/CK installed to check.
Thanks for answering questions from other people below. I don't check comments that often anymore since the mod is considered complete and has been for a while. Gave you a kudos.
Hey man I wanted to start out by saying i love the design. the door t o get in reminds me of the hidden room in the basement of the haunted mansion in Oblivion and I loved that house. I love that the lights can be turned off too. But I am having a bug. The place where torches go in the entrance is just a giant red "!". I assume that means the asset or whatever is missing and couldn't load. IDK I'm gonna try reinstalling I'll update this if that fixes it.
- I uninstalled and reinstalled and still get this issue. I don't know if it is caused by another mod or what if you have any ideas for a fix id appreciate it. (also I just noticed there is another one inside the smelter)
Sounds like you are somehow missing or not loading the BSA that comes with the mod. I had to create copies of a couple models to avoid conflicts with mods like SMIM.
It enables the dragur in the entrance area , toggleai made it as a request for a friend of his, to practice their necromancy spells with in game , from what I was told .. Plus having the dead draguar bodies show up there add to atmosphere, don't you think xD ..

But I would love it even more if there were a room for my children

Minor question, the wine barrels / casks with " fill from" for blood bottles, can only be used once ?
