1 player | 1 pack | 5 minutes
OBJECTIVE:
Survive the night by defeating the monster in your booster!
GET READY:
Open a booster and pick a double-faced card (DFC), then set it aside. This is the monster you will face. Discard all ad, token, and art cards. Shuffle the remaining cards into a stack and place it face down to create your library.
LET'S PLAY:
Play a game of Magic against the monster with the following rule modifications:
• You start with zero cards in hand and 20 life.
• At the beginning of your upkeep, create a Treasure token. (It's an artifact with "tap, Sacrifice this artifact: Add one mana of any color.")
The monster doesn't have a life total, mana, or library, and it can only be defeated by removing it from the battlefield twice: once on its front side and once on its transformed side.

Where it came from
The Monster of the Week card was released as part of the Innistrad: Crimson Vow promotional suite in 2021. Designed by Wizards of the Coast to coincide with the gothic horror-themed set, this card served as a thematic minigame component rather than a standard card for competitive play. Its inclusion was intended to deepen the immersive experience of the Innistrad plane by introducing playful, interactive mechanics that could be utilized during gameplay sessions to capture the atmosphere of classic monster cinema.
The artistic direction for the card emphasizes the campy, vintage horror aesthetic that defines the set's sub-theme. By utilizing a distinct visual language that mimics pulpy, mid-century creature features, the design team sought to evoke a sense of nostalgia for players. Upon its release, it was well-received by the casual Magic: The Gathering community, serving as a clever nod to the set's broader inspirations while functioning as a unique, collectible curiosity for enthusiasts of the game's non-standard supplemental materials.
