Several players left the designated room during the game, moving it out into the hallway, while the plotline reached a rather sexual point.  Guests in more than one room heard the moans and screams and called down to the front desk. Convention staff and security had to shut down the game and send the people on their way.   The next day when discussing this with organizers of another convention we found out that we had it easy compared to them.  The prior year the same Vampire gamemaster had run a LARP at their convention that involved role playing out a human sacrifice. At that point in the module the college-aged woman being offered up as the sacrifice dropped her robe, wearing nothing underneath.  They then used a stage-prop knife with retractiable blade that dribbled blood that was played out so realistically that several gamers thought they actually just witnessed a murder and left the room to call 911 on their cellphones to report it.   Receiving simultaneous 911 calls of a murder, the Police arrived very quickly.    The game dispersed at that point.   The convention organizers rather than the gamemaster were deemed to be the responsible parties and had to go down to the police station.   They managed to avoid having to go to court but did have to pay legal fees to get the matter resolved, the cost of which took all of the profits that the convention would have earned.</blockquote>
