I like that - just keep mentioning little details over and over again would drive my player's crazy! Something I did recently - in the Rime of the Frostmaiden adventure I made the gnoll vampire Tekeli-li a major adversary to the party. It would stalk them and occasionally attack - I actually...

Any chance of getting this thread up and active again???

Oh...don't be sorry for thread necromancy....these things happen...:) Been a while but does anyone have special plans for the upcoming Halloween season gaming-wise?

I can't complete with the last couple of posts but... ...creepy players aside... Hopefully this will be a litte palate cleanser: I recently had the pleasure of honeymooning in Vegas and visiting the marina at The Mandalay Bay with the Octopus and jellyfish displays. Watching these creatures...

Rise up thread! I command you to rise from the grave! -This thread necromancy brought to you by Tombshroud-

There was a book for modern roleplaying, I think it was called "The Book of Unremitting Horror?" Part of each creature's descriptions contained a section called autopsy/coroner's report that described what a victim killed by said creature would look like. This is one of the absolute best...

Stephen King's Silver Bullet This week I managed to snag 'Stephen King's Silver Bullet' DVD in the $5 bin at a local Wal-mart. When I was watching it this weekend I came to the part where the kid gets stuck in an old covered bridge and the bad guy is approaching but gets scared away by the...

It's the little touches that can really add to the atmosphere. I once played a fighter-paladin type character whose family passed on a curse each generation. Negative energy, shadows, undead etc. tended to linger around him. If he was in an area where negative energy was used recently some...

I've always wanted to do that! That's a great movie. I've always wanted to do an adventure based on "The Fog". Vengeful ghosts playing havoc on a small town. I've tried on several occasions to run a "Dawn of the Dead" adventure w/ mixed results.

JDRAKEH - it was the least I could do :) I liked Dead Silence for the story line (it screams Ravenloft), and I really liked the atmosphere of the movie. Sometimes CGI can get in the way of a good story but I liked the way this movie handled it. Keep up the good ideas everyone - I love all...

Thanks! I love the horror genre and couldn't let this thread die - I've found so many good ideas on it. The movie Dead Silence gave me some great ideas for a one (or two) nighter nearer Halloween. Basically about the ghost of a ventriloquist (sp?) using her dolls to get revenge. Very creepy...

Upcoming Halloween season got anyone thinking creepy? With the upcoming Halloween season and the Halloween movie remake I'm getting in the mood for some creepy adventures. Anyone come up w/ more ways to creep players out?

ummm.....bump?

And any thing that lets me know where to get jolt cola can not be evil - it's JOLT COLA!! By the by - thanks to all those who showed me were to get it!

"but the most satanic thing she saw that night was the Jolt Cola we were drinking..." Now a case of jolt cola is something I WOULD sacrafice for :) For some reason they do not sell it in Ohio.

No problem Corvidae! If it at all helps I did have a teacher in high school tell my parents that she thought Dnd was the one of the reasons I had a very wide vocabulary. Some people call roleplaying games "mental and creative excercises". I tend to agree - the only way to get me to number...

I apologize - I did not mean to accuse all religious conservatives of behaving that way. I'm sorry if you felt like I was. I was trying to show that some people will not change their opinions. I happen to know a number of religious conservatives who are very reasonable and who happen to...

Let me first say that I grew up and still live in a VERY consertative town. When I was in high school I did not keep the fact that I was a Dnd player secret. The high school had a group called FCA - Fellowship of Christen Athletes, although you did not have to be an athlete to join. They...

more zombie goodness... EvilGamer13 mentioned a world overruled by zombies and a hoard of thousands of zombies. For some reason this reminded me of an old adventure I read once, I don't remember the module - I know it was 2nd edition and I think it had something to do with Vecna. It involved...

In the homebrew I am working on most of the world's gnome population live in a country that is mostly massive primordal forests and protected by the innate gnomish illusions. They fill the standard role of tinkers and bookworms but I have also worked a few potential DM secrets into them - one...
