Candle Game: (TM) Nevermore: Tales of Mystery and Horror by Edgar Allan Poe – hinnat ja saatavuus

In Old Japan, people gathered to pass long, dark evenings testing one another's nerve with the game Hyakumonogatari Kaidankai. Taking turns sharing stories of the weird, the ghostly, and the supernatural and snuffing a candle after each tale, they would continue long into the night or until, in the growing darkness, someone reached the end of their nerves and called the game off. Candle GameTM updates this old tradition, providing rules for play as well as classic stories of the weird and ghostly for players to tell. As each candle goes out, the shadows and whatever they hide press nearer...do you dare listen to one more story? MORBID TALES OF MURDER AND MADNESSMadness and death have forever haunted the dark corners of the human experience, those places of death and decay where we all fear most to gaze too long. And it was in those very dark places Edgar Allan Poe peered and beckoned readers to join him. With a poet's gift for words, a philosopher's embrace of ambiguity, and a graverobber's eye for the gruesome, Poe dissected the gothic fiction that had been mushrooming for decades and stitched it back together into something similar but more...disturbing. Candle Game: TM Nevermore contains complete rules for play and features tales from the unmatched master Edgar Allan Poe, including his chilling classics "The Cask of Amontillado," "Morella," "The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar," and " The Tell-Tale Heart." Included as part of the game, these dark stories of madness, gruesome murder, and the preternatural can also be read on their own, but when reading, always remember: If you stare too long into the darkness, it has time to stare back into you...
