You have to do the first Courtyard quest to stop it

It's a bait to lure you into Courtyard. Highly suggest not taking it too soon.

beware because if you undertake this mission, when you succed, bloodsuckers will appear in other areas, which might be annoying.

As people said. It is a quest that will force you to release bloodsuckers into the main game. Then you have to deal with the Crimson Curse which got its pros and cons. Without blood heros die, when craving blood they can be given blood to go into bloodlust which boost them a lot. If you go in with to many CC afflicted heros a fanatic will show up to hunt you down to kill you all. You basically need to hunt the bosses in the courtyard down to deal with it.

the recuded stress reduction isn't really major btw, so while it might seem annoying, it's nothing to be concerned about. just go to the courtyard when you are ready to deal with the bloodsuckers.

In fact, just ignore the Courtyard altogether until you've got a full roster ready to blitz the content. Other than slowing your stress heal down, it's not going to be an issue.

Indeed, game kinda sets you up, thinking this is a 'noob' area, area where you learn mechanics and such because it basically tells you/notifies you to go there as soon as you arrive at Hamlet. Even the enemies inside aren't much of a hassle, and you gain confidence. But then... Crocodillian.

Party wipe in first 10 minutes of the game lol ;D

And yes, getting bloodsuckers in all other dungeons DOES get annoying, especially the quantity of those. In some runs, more that half enemies you face will be suckers rather than those who are suppose to be there. As many have suggested, wait with it. The stress penalty isn't as big as you might think.

thanks for answering this, as it helped ME as well! and i will DEFINITELY not be doing that mission anytime soon, if it means the bloodsuckers-who-give-EVERYBODY-the-crimson-curse-INSTANTLY-EVERYTIME is gonna be RELEASED and bother me ANYWHERE!
