The Twilight Tomb is an adventure module set in the Forgotten Realms for the Dungeons & Dragons 3.5 edition ruleset, designed by Greg A. Vaughan.

The adventure sees the PCs on an expedition into the Yuirwood of Aglarond in 1376 DR, where they discover a passage to the Night Realm, a demiplane splintered off the plane of Sildëyuir, realm of the star elves.

The theme is one of weird horror, with bizarre undead and aberrations appearing. The storyline reveals some of the history and culture of the star elves first introduced in Unapproachable East, as well as they conflict with the nilshai.
