If you're feeling down because spooky season has ended, consider diving into Ravensburger’s Horrified board game series. This cooperative game pits you and your friends against monsters trying to invade your town—think Dracula, Frankenstein’s Monster, the Mummy, and more. There are multiple spin-offs available, offering the chance to battle different foes and expand your game night repertoire. Best of all, Horrified is currently enjoying significant price reductions in Amazon's early Black Friday board game sale.
For newcomers to Horrified, the original board game is a great starting point. You can grab it for just $28 on Amazon, with Prime members eligible for free one-day shipping in select areas. The game includes everything you need to get started, such as seven sculpted miniatures, 75 cards, 3 dice, a fabric bag, and instructions. Matches usually last about an hour and support up to five players. Each monster demands unique strategies to defeat, and unless you’re working closely with your team, your town might not survive the night. Learning the game is straightforward, but mastering the art of fending off all seven monsters will take some time. It’s the perfect game to pair with a horror movie during the spookiest month of the year.
One of the latest additions to the Horrified lineup is Horrified: World of Monsters. Released in August, it introduces monsters like the Sphinx, Yeti, Jiangshi, and Cthulhu. It’s currently priced at $21 and is compatible with the older Horrified: Greek Monsters (now discounted to $19), allowing you to mix and match monsters for a fresh experience. Additionally, there’s Horrified: American Monsters for $26, featuring iconic American creatures like Bigfoot, Mothman, the Chupacabra, and more. This version also includes rules for solo play, giving you the chance to sharpen your skills even if your usual game night crew is unavailable.
