It's hard for me to define what is a Halloween game specifically. But I
would not classify any game with ghosts or monsters in it as a Halloween
game. I would not think that the Harry Potter series as dealing with
Halloween, even though there were scenes dealing with it.
The Haunted House table in ESP Pinball Classic would certainly qualify,
though.

Shepherds are the best beasts, but Labs are a close second.

Subject: Re: [Audyssey] More Halloween type games.
I'm a bit confused charlse.
No, shades is not set on haloween, however neither is any other game as
far as I know. If you mean Shades is sf horror rather than having ghosts
and vampires and other supernatural creatures, ---- well neither does
Swamp or Sixth sense since the zombies are virus creations, nor do the
resident evil games in the mainstream gaming world, (a series that bills!
itself survival horror).
Scifi horror has a long and honourable history, from Frankenstein, to the
Alien films, Predator, Event horizon, the thingg, invasion of the body
snatchers, Tremmers, night of the living dead etc etc, (really there are
far too many films in this genre to name, the above just represent some
personal favourites).
I'll say with shades it was the very horror of the sound effects and
atmosphere in the game that actually attracted me originally.
Heck, if you want to see extremes of horror try papasangre vs the
nightjar, since once is very much supernatural with monsters, undead, etc,
and the other is set on a spaceship orbiting a blackhole full of alien
monsters! Both are pretty terrifying in their own ways :D.
All the best,
Dark.
