I remember a old gamebook of the serie "Choose your own adventure" with the title "The Mystery of Chimney Rock" as a perfect example of kid-friendly horror story/game. Other example is the Mickey Mouse short (season 4 episode 9) The Birthday KissCartoon. Once my sister in-law told me there was a scene of the movie "Chronicles of Spiderwick" where my niece was scared.  * Horror is not Cell (Dragon Ball villain) throwing a fire ball against the people from a city street. The horror is when a citizen exits to the street and she discovers the streets are empty and there are only clothing on the floor. Then she hears a noise...[MEDIA=youtube]ZM1i5BRwqtg[/MEDIA]The horror in the game is lost if you know those nPCs are cannon fodder, fated to be killed by the monster of the week. The PCs worry more about their own mounts or monster pets.The players have to be surprised. If they have got ready against the undead monsters, then the DM has to use faes, or constructs. Have you seen the comingsoon videogame "Scarlet Nexus", or "Astral Chain"? (and a videogame with no-undead monsters is easier to be tolerated by the Chinese censorship).  I know they aren't got horror, but lots of ideas from other sources can be recycled, for example the strange creatures from "the Faun's labyrinth".  * Diath and Strix, characters from "Camera, Dice, Action", or a rip-off version, should be in Ravenloft as a "easter egg" suffering some curse. If that famous character was in Curse of Strand, why not these too?[URL unfurl="true"]https://teen-wolf-pack.fandom.com/wiki/Teen_Wolf_Wikia[/URL][URL unfurl="true"]https://tokyoghoul.fandom.com/wiki/Tokyo_Ghoul_Wiki#Tokyo_Ghoul[/URL][URL unfurl="true"]https://sleepyhollow.fandom.com/wiki/SleepyHollow_Wiki[/URL]</blockquote>
