Crazy Halloween Game idea for forum members
I had a crazy idea that might be fun. We come up with an adventure either as a group or by voting on the best submission, then all the GM run the same adventure on Halloween. The GM then all come back and post how it went with their groups. It would be interesting to see how all the varies groups solved the adventure.

First thought I had is for a Victorian Era game, in the 1860's-1890's England.

Re: Crazy Halloween Game idea for forum members
Hum....
How 'bout a haunted house that is actually real..by haunted house I mean one of those seasonal (North American for the most part) holiday attractions?
Some well meaning person has decided to use an actual abandoned asylum for a haunted Halloween attraction. The presence of living people has stirred up, what for decades has remained dead and silent (for the most part).
The P.C.'s can either be regular victim type folk or an actual spook hunter group hired to investigate.
Shawn did you just want basic concepts or an actual scenario write up?

We will need a full adventure when enough of us agree on something.

Why don't we use one of the printed adventures in Beyond Arcanum or Tome Grotesque? Oh, wait...

Re: Crazy Halloween Game idea for forum members
Sorry, couldn't resist.
Seems like a good idea. I would be thinking something USA-based as opposed to the earlier Victorian England idea, as it is in America that Hallowe'en really means something. Trick-or-treating and dressing up and all that.
Big job for someone to write an adventure for us all, though.
Unless we all do the winning adventure (or the runner up) from the recent photo-inspired adventure competition?

Re: Crazy Halloween Game idea for forum members
Hi there,
I thought, a Halloween game must be simple and straightforward!
Having recently read through Dead Reign attentively I find that I like it a lot - it is a great little game - and from "my BtS perspective" also an excellent BtS resource as a very detailed Zombie sourcebook! I think that Dead Reign is an easy fit to the extremely flexible BtS and can profit a lot from the BtS P.C.C.s, especially if you turn the Zombie story to something biblical.
So, what about this little ADVENTURE called
Enjoy!
I would love feedback.
ALTERNATIVE ADVENTURE SEED: Wanted to do a werewolf, vampire thing first, like kids become infected by something or magic that turns them into what they wear for Halloween but thought a zombie thing is more fun.
Cheers
Hendrik

Re: Crazy Halloween Game idea for forum members
Inspired on a episode of dead files where a house contained about 5 shadow people who were tormenting a family for years. Especially the children. Could be a good Adventure for a paranormal group to look into.
Showoff often leads to showdown
Svartalf- Shinobi, You're twisted
Mack- I'm constantly amazed at what people will put their energy into. This planet needs more predators.
Saitou Hajime- What kind of Americian are you?
Shadyslug- Good question

Thank you, Shawn!
Anything I should add to the adventure. Not saying here that this is what should be played, I am just asking for feedback what y'all think is missing.

As much as I'm digging this idea, I'll have to sadly stay out of this one as I wont be having a gathering for the next month or so.
But I look forward to the results!

Thank you. Will do. As I am moving house at the moment it may be a few days before I can stat out Miles but watch this space
Get well soon!
Kindest regards

Re: Crazy Halloween Game idea for forum members
Being in pain sucks.
Another idea we could try is a group enemy that every GM uses in their own way.

Re: Crazy Halloween Game idea for forum members
My Halloween game was my usual Nightbane game.
There was some dressing up though.
My players infiltrated a Vampire minion run teeny-bopper, goth Glampire Larp session.
There was zero combat and a few hundred dollars were spent at Hot Topic. No teen goths were actually harmed in the session. Damn.

I keep promising to buy stock in hot topic around the season and never remember to do so.
