Jump to navigation. Get your game face on and enjoy modern board games at the library! This month, we are featuring horror-themed games to get into the holiday spirit. Mysterium will be our featured game. Bring your favorites to share! Several games will be available to play. Adult Game Night meets monthly on the third Tuesday of the month.

Classic horror premises, such as exploring a haunted house or running from an axe-wielding murder, can be surprisingly effective when translated into a board game. Perhaps because a horror story is almost always scarier when the audience has to directly interact with it. Of course, no one is actually in danger when they play a scary game, but they can still enjoy a tense atmosphere and the novelty of imagining the terrible horrors taking place. Which is why playing spooky board games is the perfect activity for Halloween - all the chills, without any of the threat.

If you've sent out your Halloween party invitations , picked out your Halloween costume , downloaded a spooky playlist, and bought plenty of candy, all that's left to do is plan some party games for your adults-only Halloween party. There are many themed games that are fun and maybe even a bit scary to celebrate the holiday. Plus, they use items you likely already have around your house, so you won't have to spend any money.
