 In [[NetHack 3.6.0]] and later, for each of the pairs {{brightcyan|Aa}}, {{yellow|Bb}}, and {{brightmagenta|Cc}}, either the uppercase or the lowercase letter, at random, is replaced with solid walls, and the other is replaced with floor tiles: this results in a 50% chance of having to pass through each graveyard. (In previous versions of NetHack, and in many variants, the map is fixed: {{brightcyan|A}}{{yellow|B}}{{brightmagenta|C}} are always walls and {{brightcyan|a}}{{yellow|b}}{{brightmagenta|c}} are always floors, making all graveyards on the level optional.)

-If you arrive by falling or jumping through a [[Castle]] [[trapdoor]], you will land within a few squares of the [[stairs|upstair]]. The [[alignment|unaligned]] [[temple]] on the left is attended by a peaceful [[aligned priest|priest]] of [[Moloch]]. In addition to the inhabitants of the three marked [[graveyard]]s, the level also contains six [[ghost]]s, three [[vampire bat]]s, four random [[mummy|mummies]], four random [[zombie]]s, three random [[Vampire (monster class)|vampires]], and a random [[Lich (monster class)|lich]]. In addition to the boxes in the graveyards, there are four random pieces of [[armor]], four random [[weapon]]s, three random [[potion]]s, three random [[scroll]]s, two random [[wand]]s, two random [[ring]]s, two random [[spellbook]]s, three random [[tool]]s, a ruby, and two other random [[gem]]s. In addition to the [[corpse]]s in the graveyards, there are two other corpses of each character class save [[Monk]]s and [[Priest]]s. As you go from the temple to the downstair, in the top left corridor are two [[spiked pit]]s and a [[sleeping gas trap]], the trap in the center-left is a [[squeaky board]], the other two are [[dart trap]]s, and there are a further two [[magic trap]]s, two [[anti-magic trap]]s and one more squeaky board randomly located.

Your head spins in bewilderment.") will result in [[confusion]].

-[[UnNetHack]] has an alternate version of the Valley of the Dead originally taken from the [[Lethe patch]]. Much like the original, it has a lit temple, the same traps and monsters, a lot of player corpses, and similar loot lying around. Unlike the original, though, the upstairs are in a different position, a river cuts through the valley, and [[magic portal|portals]] to [[Vlad's_Tower|Vlad’s tower]], The [[Dragon_Caves|Dragon caves]], and [[Sheol]] are at the marked positions.
