Explore hostile worlds of your own creation with Dread, a game carved from the intense emotions buried in your favorite horror stories.

Through individually crafted questionnaires, players are coaxed into revealing their characters' abilities, shortcomings, personalities, and fears. These characters are plunged into macabre tales devised by the host. When moments of conflict and peril arise in the story, it is the players' nerves, rather than the whims of dice, that determine the fates of their characters.

This book contains all that is needed for two or more to play, except for:

• Paper
• Pencil, and
• A block-stacking puzzle like Jenga
