[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 8215149, member: 6802378"] A horror game means characters feeling "bad vibes", it is not despair neither repugnance by the gore. Wraith the Oblivion or Werewolf: the Apocalypse were grimmdark (urban) fantasy, but not true gothic horror. Zombieland is a mixture of action comedy and horror. Walking Dead is drama + horror. Mortal Kombat or Eternal Doom are grimmdark action but not horror. Bleach (manga anime) and Supernatural are supernatural action, Ghost Whisperer is supernatural drama, and with some little pieces of horror. True Blood is supernatural drama. Horror is when the reader worries because he wants the characters could survive. If you are used to think only the final girl is going to survive then it is not right horror fiction. Ravenloft has not been designed to be mature horror, but with different tones, even space for kid-friendly horror stories. It is gothic fantasy with misteries, supernatural dramas and higher or lesser pieces of terror.
