Abstract:
A themed board game, is family oriented and recreates the fun and wonder of Halloween, preferably for 3 to 8 players (ages preferably 8 and older), and takes about one hour to play. A game board has printed thereon a thematic scene, a preferred example of which being a Haunted House. Twin sets of cards each include three category groups: a place category (depicted as locations of the Haunted House), an entity category (Halloween related persons or things, as for example a werewolf, a witch, a ghost, etc. ), and an event category (Halloween related occurrences, as for example a scream, a laugh, a howl, an odor, etc. ). A randomizing instrument is provided, preferably in the form of a single die which preferably may uniquely include a Halloween indicia in place of the six dots face (as for example a cat or a jack-o-lantern). Three cards, one from each category are secretly selected, the indicia of which form a Haunting Mystery. Players try to solve the Haunting Mystery by deducing which of the cards in play have no matching duplicate.
