Spooky Tales (2008)

The box contains two different decks of cards for two different games. They have the potential to be scary, but are for ages 8 and up. One is a 76 card storytelling game, which includes text cards for beginnings, segues and endings. Black and white line drawings depict characters, settings, things, actions and embellishments. A storyteller uses up their cards by putting these elements into their story. Other players can interrupt and continue the story themselves by playing a card or using a steal token. The second deck is called Vampire Rises, and consists of 24 cards: 4 vampires, 17 villagers, 1 seer, 1 garlic farmer and 1 vampire hunter. It is played like games such as Werewolf. The roles are handed out secretly. Villagers desire to kill all the vampires. Vampires prey on the villagers. The seer helps the villagers discover who the vampires are. Also in the gamebox is a large flashlight which has button for sound effects: thunder, wolf, scream, and laugh.
