What happens when you take the classic board games from your childhood and turn them into horror movies? By turning these family-friendly board games into horror films, movie-goers are able to experience a new take on an old classic. From Monopoly to Battleship, no game is too simple for a terrifying twist. The appeal of taking these special games and giving them some monstrous makeovers lies in the idea that something so familiar can become so unfamiliarly eerie. While there have been many successful horror movies released over the years that used inventive plots and horrifying set pieces, having a childhood favorite be used to tell such a dark story could potentially spook up theaters around the world. In addition to being a fresh take on the genre of horror, this idea also has potential to bring in viewers who may not have seen a particular board game-based horror film before because they recognize its source material. The history of horror board games dates back thousands of years and is believed to have originated with ancient stories revolving around powerful and malevolent gods, demons, monsters, witches, and other legendary and mythical creatures. Though not technically considered a board game as we know it today, many societies and cultures would enact dramatic reenactments of these tales to tell their stories in an interactive and entertaining way. Throughout the centuries, horror-inspired board games were further refined by an array of different artists, designers and philosophers from all around the world.
