That depends on if you want to be a mindless sheep giving in to the money trap of 4th edition. If you actually want to have fun playing D&D, buy 3rd edition. 3rd edition is out of print, however, and because of that I would advise Pathfinder (a 3ed spinoff that is actually better than 3rd).
To play Dungeons and Dragons: Castle Ravenloft, you need the Castle Ravenloft board game itself, which includes the game components and rules. Additionally, having a set of polyhedral dice is essential for gameplay. If you're new to Dungeons & Dragons, a basic understanding of the rules or a rulebook would be helpful, but the Castle Ravenloft game typically includes the necessary rules to get started.

Gary Gygax co-created Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) in the early 1970s, with the first edition being published in 1974. The game was developed through Gygax's collaboration with Dave Arneson and became the foundation for modern tabletop role-playing games. Gygax's work in D&D established a new genre of entertainment, blending storytelling with gameplay mechanics.
I would recommend the 4th Edition Players Handbook. 4th Edition is the latest version and has been simplified a bit to help encourage new players. This would make a good starting place. 3.5 Ed. Is more complicated but many players like it due to a greater range of options in gameplay and character creation.

The current edition of Dungeons and Dragons has seen a recent resurge of popularity due mostly to an aggressive marketing campaign by the title owner, Wizards of the Coast, followed by strong content support both online and through continued title publication. While exact numbers are difficult to obtain, Wizards of the Coast has a reported annual sales of over 120 million dollars, though the company produces many titles of which Dungeons and Dragons is but one. Recent estimates indicate that more than 4 million Americans play Dungeons and Dragons. It is worth noting, though, that the changes implemented in the 4th Edition of Dungeons and Dragons received mixed reviews among long-time players of the gaming system, with many claiming that the new rules system felt more like a video game than the role-playing game they'd grown used to. Many of those people switched to a rules system from Paizo Publishing called "Pathfinder", which was largely based on the "3.5" Dungeons and Dragons rules, with some improvements. Other gaming systems, more a throwback to the original Advanced Dungeons and Dragons rules, such as Castles and Crusades, also saw an increase in popularity as old-school gamers looked for rules systems that felt more comfortable to them. As evidence of this growth in Pathfinder popularity: In 2010 at GenCon (the dominant RPG-heavy gaming conference), D&D had 431 events and Pathfinder had 169. In 2011, D&D's numbers were largely static at 455, but Pathfinder had increased dramatically to 276. Similarly, Wizards of the Coast's "presence" at GenCon has felt diminished over the past few years, while Paizo's has definitely increased.
The original creators are Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson. The first publisher was "Tactical Studies Rules", which became "TSR Hobbies", in the early 1970's. The current publisher is "Wizards of the Coast", a subsidiary of Hasbro. They are responsible for creating the Third and Fourth editions of the game (and are presently working on a fifth edition).

The answer is yes! You can still buy prestige edition, you can buy it on eBay and maybe amazon.com too! I don't know if you can buy new but you go ahead and try.
You either need to breed new eggs in the breeding cave, or buy them in the market.
You have to get the collectors edition of the game or buy the dlc from the marketplace
Ebay, or amazon
