[guirienespana]

ARE YOU READY TO ROCK????

Question 1:

A popular Halloween party game


Did you go for the traditional apple bobbing?





Perhaps pumpkin carving is more your game....





I PITY THE FOOL THAT CARVES BETTER THAN ME!!


Or maybe you prefer something like Mummy Wrap?

[Necro]

Question 1: A popular Halloween party game


11 people like their apples bobbed at Halloween which takes our sheep crown and NIL points

Fortunately for y'all the answers are so varied that Mummy Wrap sneaks into HEEPS position with just 2 points... so not an unassailable lead by any stretch of the imagination...

Bobbing for coins was great , fun and profitable at the same time !

[Necro]

Question 2: A Slasher Movie Franchise


Plenty of options here again... some of our more popular answers below

[aaronjennings]

That was the only game I could actually think of, seems I wasn't alone

[Necro]

Question 2: A slasher movie franchise

It's tight but by 2 points Scream is the SHEEP which is good news for Freddy Krueger fans...

Interestingly Halloween is just a point behind, I thought given it's literally in the name of the game it would be higher... but maybe people avoided it for that reason?

I was going to group Neowise with the Halloween answers as I did state 'franchise'... but given he was specific I left him out on his lonesome...

That may come into play more prominently in other answers though

[nothing]

Damn, I nearly went with Nightmare on elm streer but thought it would be too popular!

[Leg End Reject]

I was going to say pin the tail on the donkey for the game. Sorry Trigger, we could have joint heeped!

[Necro]

Question 3: An Alfred Hitchcock horror movie

Wow, big Sheeps so far

[Mam of 4]

I thought everyone would go for zombies so opted for wolf man AAARGH!

[Necro]

Question 5:

A character not named Buffy Summers from the TV series, Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Buffy = 0)


So did you go for one of the Scooby Gang?



Or perhaps a love interest...







OR..




(Ok yeah nobody picked Riley. No one ever picks Riley )

[Leg End Reject]

I think we should leave it at that @Necro.

Great game and reveal, hard luck to the rest of you.

[Necro]

Question 5: A character not named Buffy Summers from the TV series, Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Buffy = 0)

The big sheeps continue with nine selecting Willow of House Rosenberg to be their Halloween Sheep



Rupert Giles picks up the HEEPS. Of course he did, the glorious, sexy, British bastard.

Well this is a rollercoaster... what is that 3 Sheep and 2 Heeps so far?

[Trigger]

Oh come on... he even had his own spin-off

I thought Angel would sheep so went with Spike

[Necro]

Question 6: A survival horror video game

Very close this time around, Silent Hill with 7 selections, Resident Evil with 6... unfortunate for Silent Hill fans.. but not all, as Trigger and cee_jay select the follow up game, aptly named Silent Hill 2
