The Halls of Agony is three story set of dungeons directly underneath Leoric's Manor in the Highlands of Khanduras. The first two levels are separated by the Highlands Passage and the Cursed Hold. This area forms part of the torture chambers of the Mad King (Leoric).
The corridors link prisoner cells and torture chambers still with torture devices in them. Some have their last victim, or what is left of them, strapped in. This place is full of hell fire and damnation.
