Horror Blackout Games (Adams Media, a division of F+W Media, Inc.; February 2012)
Finally, here's your chance to create your own terrifying tales. So go ahead, conjure up a dark and stormy night (you know you want to), and describe your worst breakup:
There was something in the moody and dogged silence of this pertinacious companion that was mysterious and appalling… On mounting a rising ground, which brought the figure of his fellow-traveller in relief against the sky, gigantic in height, and muffled in a cloak, Ichabod was horror-struck on perceiving that he was headless!--but his horror was still more increased on observing that the head, which should have rested on his shoulders, was carried before him on the pommel of his saddle! His terror rose to desperation; he rained a shower of kicks and blows upon Gunpowder, hoping by a sudden movement to give his companion the slip; but the spectre started full jump with him. Away, then, they dashed through thick and thin; stones flying and sparks flashing at every bound.
—From Washington Irving's "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow"
Romance Blackout Games
Light a candle (or two) to set the mood, and pour your heart out. Describe the craziest thing you've ever done for someone, make opposites attract with the flick of a pen, and decode a love message in a passage from Jane Austen's Emma.
Shakespeare BlackOut Games
Grab a quill, take a page from the great Bard, and pen your own world-renowned works.
How did you feel when you lost your favorite childhood pet?
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd,
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature's changing course untrimm'd:
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st,
Nor shall death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st,
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
—From William Shakespeare's "Sonnet XVIII"
