Okay, I'm really looking forward to turning down the lights in late October, lighting a few candles, listening to one of my Midnight Syndicate CD's moaning softly in the background and cracking open a few Horror themed board games with some friends...yahoo!!!
Last year I posted a picture on my board game forum of a couple of my fcg's and my reaper playing a game of "Ghost Chase" (http://boardgamegeek.com/image/168675?size=original)
Here are a few games you guys might enjoy. On each page you can see a description of the game and if you scroll down, you can browse all the pictures of the game. Just in case anyone's interested. I'll just list a few of the fun and easy games, but there are a ton of horror themed games available these days. The board game industry has really taken off in the US this past decade. FINALLY. No more monopoly, yeee haaa!
Dracula (http://boardgamegeek.com/game/7804)
Spooks (card game) (http://boardgamegeek.com/game/7989)
Ghost Chase (http://boardgamegeek.com/game/1533)
And some more in depth games:
Alchemist (http://boardgamegeek.com/game/27385) This one looks cool, but I don't own it yet. You're making different potions in cauldrons. It has great board art.
Oh heck, there are too many to list. Here's a link to the Horror themed (http://boardgamegeek.com/browser.php?itemtype=game&sortby=rank&categoryid=24) games. I recommend the ones above for more family orientated groups.
Anyway, I just wanted to share in case anyone might be interested. They really put you in the mood. I'm currently awaiting my copy of Dracula. I just can't decide if I'm going to play Dracula or Dr. Van Helsing...decisions, decisions...
