The Horror Trap
And the Horror needs feeding. The third in the Comedy Evening series, The Horror Trap was inspired by the phrase "corpse broth" (from another designer, used by permission), spun off another game idea and then developed into "what if you could play the villagers from The Wicker Man".   A suitable victim has entered your visit, and your job is to lure the stranger into your existential horror without alerting them to the threat.
