Culling of Stratholme is the name of the fourth Caverns of Time wing, which will be released in World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King.

It will be a 5-man, level 80 instance centered around helping Prince Arthas purge the city of Stratholme from the grain-infected populace. At the end of the instance players will fight and defeat the Dreadlord Mal'Ganis.^[1] ^[2]

Background

The Culling, featured Arthas in a mission to rid the city of Stratholme of its infected inhabitants before they were reanimated as zombies. The only things in his way were the dreadlord Mal'ganis and Uther and his men...]] "Old Stratholme" — as stated by Tigole at the gaming convention in Leipzig, Germany in August 2007^[3] — will be set during The Culling, the sixth mission of the human campaign in Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos. Prince Arthas arrives outside of Stratholme, realizing that the people have been infected by the Plague of Undeath by the Dreadlord Mal'Ganis. At first ordering Uther the Lightbringer - who refuses - to purge the town, Arthas disbands the Knights of the Silver Hand and takes it upon himself to burn down the city and kill everyone in it, to prevent them from becoming part of the Scourge. The purging of Stratholme is one of the first acts in Arthas' descent into madness and evil, eventually becoming one of the Lich King's greatest death knights and later the Lich King himself.
