Drunken Games: #2 - Where are you, Witch?

In all honesty I can't remember if this is a real existing game or if we made it up in our drunken stupor..

Best played in the countryside, due to the creepiness and to increase difficulty when seeking.
It's basically a reverse version of Hide and Seek - one person (the Witch) hides while the others (the Angry Mob) hunt for her/him..

Torches are allowed for the Angry Mob, who also get 3 chances to shout "Where are you, Witch??"
The Witch must cackle as loudly as possible.

The Witch can move in between cackles, but must remain in the same general area after the final one.

I was almost always the Witch, due to my very loud, uncanny witch-like cackle.
I would often sneak around and take a member of the Angry Mob hostage as well, just to increase the scare factor.

"Heheheheheheheheee!"

Drunken Games: #1 - Murder in the Dark

When I was a teenager living in the countryside, there was not much to do. So we decided to make our own entertainment.
Getting very drunk and playing silly games was a common theme.

If you're looking to be freaked out and excited in equal measure, I would recommend playing Murder in the Dark.

1. Find a big(ish) house with lots of nooks and crannies.

2. Move objects out of the way that could do damage (nobody likes falling down stairs or losing an eye!)

3. Prepare pieces of paper- all saying "victim" apart from one saying "murderer"

4. Fold the paper and pick out of a hat- don't let anybody else see your paper

5. Turn off the lights and scatter (give people 5 minutes to hide)

6a) If you're a victim, hide! Choose somewhere out of the way but escapable in an emergency. Also, somewhere comfortable and quiet (no leaning on crunchy carrier bags etc) with a view of the room entrance. You'll appreciate this if the murderer approaches..

6b) If you're the murderer you can start looking for victims and "killing" (usually a tap on a particular shoulder as decided beforehand) them. Or you can be sneaksy and pretend you are a victim, hiding somewhere you are sure other victims will go to and then pounce..

My friends always chose the latter.

7. Pee your pants!!
