ABSTRACT:
This game is a hide and go seek type party game with many variations. The game can accommodate any number of desired participants. The game is suitable for individuals ages five to ninety years old. The rules and playing instructions are presented on cassette tape. The recording artist speaks with a "transylvania" type accent, the accent most commonly used in older vampire movies. As the rules are given and the game is played, special effect original audio music is heard in the background. (FIG. 27) The sounds of an organ, heavy rain mixed with explosive thunder and crashing cymbals add an additional aura of uncertainty for the newly invited guests. The game is played with twenty five individual playing cards each with a common backside (FIG. 1). Only one card is designated as the vampire card (FIG. 2). The game has twenty four victim cards, each with different names and various causes of death associated with vampires (FIGS. 3 to 26). Many participants who have come to play the game were invited by receiving a special invitation that was duplicated from the master copy of the invitation provided with the game. (FIG. 28)
