About this board game
The Ghosts Betwixt is a campaign-driven cooperative dungeon crawler for 1–4 players, with games lasting around 180 minutes. Set in 1990s Midwestern suburbia, it blends light-hearted horror with a multi-layered mystery surrounding a kidnapped child.
Young Richie was last seen being taken into the Bennert family’s farmhouse, which becomes the Worlds of Terror haunted house during the Halloween season. As the Bennerts’ attraction struggles to compete with more impressive city venues, the family prepares to use its ultimate wild card—and Richie’s family must discover what is really happening.
Players join Bill, Joan, Avelynn, and Maddox as they battle the Bennert family and explore a challenging, story-driven campaign. The investigation raises unsettling questions: Why was Richie chosen? What are the Bennerts planning? And what connection does the Worlds of Terror attraction have to the kidnapping?
