Have OUTER LIMITS & Ideal HAUNTED HOUSE. I had SEANCE-The Voice from the Great Beyond and sold it. Found it at a church rummage sale. I had never heard of it until I found it.

I have never seen or heard of that one either.  Wonder what it was like?
Long live the UMA!

Kinda funny that you found that particular game at a church rummage sale.

I had to do some glue repairs to get the little record to play correctly inside the table.  I can see why it is a desirable game and it was complete and in pretty nice shape. It just had no nostalgic appeal to me personally and I already have SO much stuff.



And here's a nice description etc:

Could you post some pics of the turntable in the seance table? I would love to see what that looks like.

Pretty sure this was the only one I ever owned...

I know there was a "Dark Shadows" card game, too. I remember the deck had rather stylized art that depicted Barnabas Collins with dead white skin and pointed ears, almost like Graf Orlock in "Nosferatu."
Edit: Turns out it was another board game that had a card deck, too!

I didn't know there was more than one Dark Shadows game.

The first Dark Shadows board game was my favorite that I owned. Still have it.

Years ago I picked up a great looking game called "Midnight Party" Beautifully illustrated, and actually a nice game to play. I have the English edition published by Ravensburger.

BTW, www.boardgamegeek.com is a great resource site for old games.

And, if you change the search parameter to "Artist" and plug in "Chris White" you can see some of the games I did art for back in the '80s and '90s...

Oh my! I would love to play this game.

Green Ghost was fun.

I also had a Barnabas Collins Dark Shadows board game too. I still have the fangs from that game, they are really well made.
