Dread Photos

I recently played in an excellent SF game of Dread - a horror RPG that uses a Jenga tower as its mechanic. To succeed in a difficult task, or to avoid being the GM's plaything, you have to pull from the tower. If the tower falls, your character dies. Horribly. To up the tension, the game had cool spooky music (Event Horizon soundtrack, Set Fire to Flames, Silent Hill), and some creepy lighting achieved with torches that had fluorescent bulbs in them. We had one on the floor, and players had to hold another torch in one hand while they made their pull. It was awesome:

The game was cool, and I was really happy with the photos too (I like playing with a digital camera).
